Geogrotesque

Eduardo Manso

Geogrotesque is a semi modular with a subtle rounded finish typeface. All the characters are based in the same formal principle with its corresponding optical adjustments in order to adapt the system to an alphabet for texts. Although the type family has a geometric or "technological" construction, the rounded finish provides it a warm appearance, making the typefaces nicer and nearby.
