Silene specimen from Piotr Łapa

A two-style serif family from Piotr Łapa, offering Roman and Italic cuts with oldstyle figures, standard ligatures and broad Latin diacritic coverage.

About

Silene is a compact family built around Roman and Italic styles, designed with text setting in mind. The glyph set includes oldstyle and lining figures, pre-built fractions, case-sensitive forms and a full range of diacritical marks covering Central and Northern European Latin scripts. Standard ligatures and multiple numeral styles give it the typographic completeness expected of a professional text face.

Classification

The glyph set and dual-style family structure suggest a refined humanist serif with oldstyle figures and standard ligatures, typical of text-oriented serif design. The inclusion of both Roman and Italic cuts points to a text typeface rooted in classical serif traditions.
