It’s in Brando’s unusual approach—incorporating text models that feel more sans than serif, the interplay of static and dynamic contrast, closely harmonized character widths, generous fit, and those almost modular bracketed serifs—that it edges its way toward the most contemporary end of the spectrum.

Together the two form a tight bond, reminding me that in the right circumstances, the more disparate the parts, the greater the sum.
