Glyphs Overview
Crit is an interpretation of the early grotesque sans serif models through a contemporary lens, now expanded into a family of eight weights with matching italics. It takes inspiration from the straightforward charm of mid-century sans serifs, often swapped freely in phototype layouts where names like Helvetica and Akzidenz became almost interchangeable.
Crit builds on that tradition with clean shapes and careful spacing that give it a steady, balanced feel. As it gets bolder, the counters shift toward squarer forms to keep the letters clear without getting too heavy. Its tall x-height combined with shorter ascenders and descenders keeps the text looking tight but easy to read. Though rooted in function, Crit introduces quiet shifts in form that add character without distraction. Shapes open up, ligatures appear where they help, and heavier styles hold their shape without crowding. Drawn as a single, adaptable cut, Crit stays consistent across sizes and settings.
