About

Didonesque Stencil extends Paulo Goode's Didonesque family with a stencil treatment suited to large-scale display use, covering four weights in three width variants: standard, Condensed and the more refined Elegante. The Elegante sub-family pairs crisp, high-contrast curves with tapered serifs and terminals aimed at luxury fashion and beauty applications. Each style ships with over 780 glyphs, including 26 alternates, 30 ligatures, small caps and petite caps.

Classification

A stencilled Didone display face with high stroke contrast, tapered serifs and minimal ball terminals. The stencil treatment and extreme contrast firmly place it in the display category, while its Didone heritage is evident in the sharp hairlines and vertical stress.
