Sabon Next specimen from Typofonderie

Porchez's revival and extension of Jan Tschichold's Sabon, adding weights and a Display cut to the 1960s original.

About

Sabon Next keeps Tschichold's Garalde old-style structure intact while filling out what the original never had, a proper weight range and a Display size built for larger settings. It remains one of the more conservative entries in the catalogue, for readers who want Sabon rather than a reinterpretation of it.

Classification

Porchez's licensed revival and extension of Jan Tschichold's 1960s Sabon, adding a Display cut and additional weights to the original two-weight design.
