About the family


Forme Grotesque, by Jeremy Johnson, explores the richness of the 19th century British Grotesque genre. The design draws on inspiration from a number of British type foundries, including Grotesques from Stephenson Blake, Monotype and Miller & Richard. Johnson looked at the particular idiosyncrasies and imperfections of these early typefaces, attempting to put these through a contemporary lens, whilst retaining a nuanced spirit throughout an extensive type family that spans a wide range of weights, and over multi language writing systems.
