Each of the 18 styles includes a corresponding italic, and the family is available as a variable font with a continuous weight axis. With 871 characters per font, it covers a wide range of Latin-based languages and includes multiple OpenType features and stylistic alternates. Named after the Spanish city of Alicante, it is pitched as a general-purpose family for branding, publishing and web use.
Classification
A contemporary sans-serif with a broad weight range and humanist proportions, suited to text and display use across print and screen. The generous character set and variable font support point to a functional, workhorse design rather than a stylistically extreme one.
