About
Hydrous balances a strong structural framework, built for typographic endurance at any scale, with softer decorative details including variable serifs and ball finials that prevent the design from reading as purely utilitarian. Three weights run from Normal through Bold to Massive, each with a matching slant. Western and Eastern European character sets are included alongside stylistic alternates and ligatures.
Classification
A serif with variable serifs and ball finials combined with reinforced industrial stems and strokes, placing it in an industrial or mixed serif category with a distinctly contemporary character.
