More about this family

About the family


Superclarendon is a contemporary interpretation of the 19th-century Clarendon slab serif, designed with broader proportions, sturdy slab serifs, and subtly squared curves. Created from the ground up, it retains the strength and familiarity of its historical predecessor while introducing a cleaner, more versatile structure for modern use.

Unlike many Clarendon revivals that lean on ornamental italics, Superclarendon uses a straightforward slant for its italic styles, preserving the typeface’s solid, no-nonsense character. The family includes four weights with matching italics, plus old-style numerals, giving designers flexibility for everything from impactful headlines to confident, readable text.

Technical refinements over successive updates have improved spacing, refined curves, expanded the character set with modern currency symbols and the German capital Eszett, and enhanced support for languages such as Polish and Vietnamese. Its extended Latin coverage makes it suitable for projects intended for a wide international audience.

Superclarendon offers a balance of heritage and utility—a dependable slab serif that stands out without relying on ornament, equally at home in branding, editorial, and display settings.
