A humanist sans serif from ParaType with nine upright and italic styles plus five condensed variants, including alternate characters suited to advertising, editorial and corporate use.
About
Designed by Oleg Karpinsky in 2006, Mellnik spans five weights from ExtraLight to Heavy, each with italics, and was extended with condensed styles in 2007. Alternate characters add typographic variety without departing from its legible, humanist character. The family works across both long-form text settings and display use in catalogues, booklets and magazines.
Classification
Explicitly described as a humanist sans serif, with alternate characters and a design suited to both text and display use, characteristic of the humanist genre's warmth and legibility.
