Serif: Bracketed Modern Display
These (mostly Angloamerican) typefaces in the “Modern” or “Didone” class of serifs have a high contrast — though often less so than Bodoni and its relatives — and are further distinguished by their bracketed serifs. Though not usually classified as slab serifs, they are closely related in structure to Clarendons and Ionics. This style of Modern type was popular in the 1800s and is seeing a resurgence today, especially in newspapers.
The typefaces on this page, with their delicate hairlines and showy details, are best suited for display settings and headlines. See this set for text options.
