Manier specimen from Piotr Łapa

A six-weight humanist sans with matching italics, offering a broad extended Latin glyph set with oldstyle figures, stylistic alternates and standard ligatures.

About

Manier covers twelve styles in total, running from Thin to Heavy with corresponding italics. The glyph set is thorough, including lining, tabular and oldstyle figures, fractions, a full suite of diacritics for Central and Northern European languages, and two stylistic sets for alternate letterforms. Stylistic ligatures and case-sensitive punctuation add typographic flexibility for editorial and branding applications.

Classification

Manier exhibits humanist sans-serif characteristics with optical warmth and a large glyph set supporting extended Latin. The presence of oldstyle figures, stylistic alternates and standard ligatures points to a text-oriented humanist design rather than a geometric or grotesque one.
