Para Grand
Rellence · Jan Weidemüller · 2023
A contemporary geometric grotesque designed for display use, the largest of three optical sizes in Rellence's Para family, available in six weights with italics and variable font support.
About
Para Grand is the display-scale variant of the Para family, which Rellence positions across three optical sizes to cover text, mid-scale and headline settings. It carries six weights from Light to Super, each with a matching italic, and ships with variable font versions on a weight axis. The design mixes geometric structure with high-contrast details drawn from Didone and Transitional references, landing somewhere between cold precision and editorial warmth.
