Lux Typo · Greg Lindy · 2020
A condensed humanist sans with open apertures and eight weights, designed by Greg Lindy as part of the wider Gustan Collection.
About
Gustan Circa is the condensed member of the Gustan Collection, built around structural and utilitarian principles rather than surface-level stylistic decisions. Its open apertures serve legibility at smaller sizes, and its character spacing prioritises word harmony over decorative effect. Sixteen styles across eight weights with matching italics make it a versatile option for both text and display work.
Classification
A condensed humanist sans-serif with open apertures and considered structure, designed with functional legibility in mind rather than stylistic affectation. Its condensed proportions and eight-weight range place it firmly in the workhorse sans tradition.
