Rowton

From Black[Foundry]

Rowton explores Humanist type design through three categories: upright sans, italic sans, and seriffed stencil weights. Collecting these diverse forms in one family highlights how seamlessly they mix within layouts. Inspired by Eric Gill, Rowton builds on his typeface while preserving its lively expressiveness, offering versatility for editorial, branding, and more. Each style of Rowton has six weights from Hairline to Black, plus matching italics, or as two variable fonts.
