Typeface information
GT Era reimagines the warmth and idiosyncrasies of early grotesk typefaces for our own era. These pre-modernist tools were being pushed to their extremes in the radical designs of the modernist movements—like Bauhaus and De Stijl—of the period. The typeface shuns neutrality and embraces friction, championing recognition over uniformity and flavor over conformity.
