Hello. Here we are again with our occasional newsletter. We got a new typeface, a long-awaited type extension, new trial fonts of our entire type library and a couple of blog posts you can’t miss. Happy holidays!

Carolinéale

New release: Carolinéale designed by Francis Ramel

After being born from a research project on Carolingian minuscule, Carolinéale has undergone a seven-year process to evolve into a versatile sanserif of contemporary elegance. However, its voice still conveys a subtle touch of history. Endowed with all the type goodies the discerning designer may need, Carolinéale is both a comfortable text face and a powerful display type that will stimulate readers at large sizes.
