Sharp Type · 2025
Sharp Type's dedicated text serif, spanning Thin to Extrabold with matching italics, calibrated for body copy and sustained reading.
About
Sharp Serif Text is Sharp Type's entry into the text serif space, released in October 2025 with twelve styles covering six weights from Thin to Extrabold, each paired with a companion italic. The "Text" designation marks it as built for body-copy sizes, with the aperture openness and considered spacing that extended reading demands. It broadens a catalogue previously weighted towards grotesques and display faces, adding a genuine workhorse serif to Sharp Type's library.
