Glycerin specimen from ROHH

A geo-humanist sans in 22 styles spanning 11 weights with matching true italics, released as two variable font files with a weight axis running from Hairline to Heavy.

About

Glycerin sits comfortably between geometric precision and humanist approachability, offering an alternate stylistic set that shifts the design toward a more minimal, geometric register. With 1,358 glyphs, extended Latin language support and a full suite of OpenType features including small caps, oldstyle figures and discretionary ligatures, it is well provisioned for corporate identity and editorial work. Two variable font files cover the upright and italic axes respectively, interpolating continuously across the full weight range.

Classification

Described explicitly as a geo-humanist sans, Glycerin blends geometric construction with humanist warmth, evidenced by its true italics and alternate simplified geometric stylistic set that can shift the texture between the two poles.
