Berenjena specimen from Quintana-Font

A book serif from Chilean designer Javier Quintana Godoy, balancing expressive personality with reading comfort across five weights and matching italics.

About

Berenjena – Spanish for aubergine – is designed specifically for long-form text such as novels and short fiction, where sustained readability and visual interest must coexist. The family spans five weights from Book to Bold, each with a corresponding italic, giving typographers a practical range without sacrificing the face's individual character. The design aims to avoid the extremes of either over-expressiveness or dullness that often undermine book typefaces.
