Grotesque sans typefaces are timeless classics. Just when you think one Swiss font is enough, a new specimen from the past invites you to explore modern interpretations of the minimalist letterforms. This design space is highly competitive, so the differences are subtle and almost imperceptible. To work with these shapes, you need an eye for the infinitesimal, whether you aspire to be a design god or the devil in the details.

The interplay of modernist precision and the energy of vintage lead grotesques creates a delicate equilibrium. The resulting typeface develops an idiosyncratic relationship with negative space, inspired by the tight metrics that modernist designers imposed on their layouts. While the text subfamily optimizes spacing, the Milligram Tight Variant plays with a feeling of attraction behind the shapes, taken to the extreme in its logo-oriented design.

Designed by Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini and Andrea Tartarelli, Milligram is a fine yet bold homage to the Akzidenz Grotesk that never was.
