Populus specimen from Storm Type Foundry

A playful geometric sans built on the skeleton of Roman capitals.

About

Populus arrived after an update to Storm's serif Areplos, conceived as a more robust, monolinear sans counterpart with input from designer Jan Solpera. Nine weights across text and display optical sizes give it real range, plus a generous set of alternate characters.

Classification

A geometric sans superfamily rather than a decorative face, built on a classical Roman capital skeleton.
