Troppau specimen from Obrysy

A geometric sans fused with sharp blackletter insets, named after a Czech city shaped by German influence.

About

Troppau takes a geometric sans skeleton and cuts sharp blackletter details into it, a fusion drawn from the layered German and Czech history of Opava. Seven weights come in upright, slanted and extra-slanted cuts plus a variable version with weight and slant axes. Distinctive enough for identity work that wants historical weight without going fully gothic.

Classification

Geometric sans proportions fused with sharp blackletter insets, referencing the German-influenced history of the Czech city Opava (Troppau), place this in the display category as a genre-blending face.
