About
Originally designed for the National Museum in Wrocław, whose collection spans Eastern and Western art, Janus reflects that duality through its typographic system. Beyond a conventional italic, it offers a counter-italic slanting in the opposite direction, giving designers two distinct modes of accentuation. The family is positioned particularly for wayfinding applications.
