YWFT Longcroft specimen from YouWorkForThem

A contemporary semi-serif with 18 styles, matching italics and a variable font covering weight and width axes, aimed at luxury branding and editorial use.

About

YWFT Longcroft offers softened serifs that read quietly at text sizes and assert themselves at display scale, with 939 glyphs making it one of the more complete offerings in the YWFT catalogue. The variable font supports both weight and width axes, making it practical for responsive web typography across breakpoints. Language coverage extends to Cyrillic, Greek and Vietnamese, broadening its suitability for international brand systems.

Classification

Described explicitly as a semi-serif, the design features softened serifs that sit between a full serif and sans-serif, closer in spirit to a humanist serif with reduced bracketing. This positions it in an emerging category of hybrid designs intended to bridge editorial and digital applications.
