Description
FS Brabo is an eloquent typeface. Not a revival, but very much a contemporary & sturdier interpretation of a garalde – a class of typeface originating in the 16th century with characteristically rounded serifs and moderate contrast in between strokes. FS Brabo is a modern take on a workhorse serif typeface: colorful and versatile enough to adorn not just editorial projects but also signage, advertising, logotypes and other uses.
