A 1993 humanist serif by Christoph Noordzij rooted in the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague tradition, with stroke contrast and spacing calibrated for both small text and display use.
About
Designed in 1993, Collis reflects the typographic thinking that characterised the The Hague school, balancing elegance with practicality. The roman and italic carry an extensive character set suited to complex multilingual typesetting. A distinctive feature is the set of lowered accented capitals, designed to prevent diacritics from disrupting line spacing in tightly set text.
