About
Reber R41 has assembled the most iconic designs of Aldo Novarese – one of Italy's foremost twentieth-century type designers – into a single collection sourced from the Nebiolo foundry in Turin. Titles include Eurostile, Recta, Dattilo, Estro and more than twenty others, each digitised to contemporary technical standards. The collection represents a sustained effort to maintain the legibility and character of the original metal and phototype originals.
Classification
A collection spanning multiple categories – grotesque sans-serifs, display faces, blackletters and slab serifs – all drawn from the work of Aldo Novarese at the Nebiolo foundry. No single category applies; display is chosen as the dominant heritage of the collection.
