FF Dagny Offc Pro Regular Italic
In 2002, the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter (DN) changed from broadsheet to tabloid — a change that came along with a major impact on DN’s journalism, editing, and design. Pangea design’s Creative Director, Örjan Nordling, had already worked with DN as a design consultant in 1996.
In 2000, DN had been redesigned under the leadership of Mario Garcia. For the new design Nordling had created DN Bodoni exclusively for Dagens Nyheter. The change to tabloid called for a more compact setting and Pangea design was commissioned to produce a matching sans serif for Sweden’s largest daily newspaper. This became DN Grotesk which now has evolved into FF Dagny.
For the FontFont library several adjustments were made. The contrast in stroke thickness was reduced for better legibility in small sizes and characters were redesigned together with the FontFont type department. The family now includes a range of consistent weights from Thin to Black making it perfect for use in body text and all kind of other applications. The name Dagny is an abbreviation of Dagens Nyheter as well as an old nordic female name meaning “new day”.
