Using our typeface

Short All Caps Headlines

Keeping our headlines short allows us to use punchy messaging and scale up text to emphasise the details of the typeface. You can use all caps in limited quantities on cover pages and other key pages to bring even more impact to layouts.

Leading

Don’t make leading too tight and avoid ascenders and descenders clashing.
