From the foundry
Karlo is a sans serif typeface with 22 styles across 3 widths (Open, Serif, Sans), each with various weights. Inspired by the writings of calligrapher Edward Johnston, Karlo moves in two directions: the humanistic low stroke contrast of Karlo Serif and Karlo Sans, and the high stroke contrast of Karlo Open referencing 19th-century jobbing typefaces. Karlo Open gives the impression of writing with two pencils at once. Karlo Sans and Karlo Serif each have 5 weights (XLight to Bold) with italics. Works well for editorial use, text, display sizes, and web applications.
