Round Condensed is characterized by its narrow proportions, while staying faithful to Round’s essence, where round letters retain their size. As for Round, the circular shapes are crossed by straight strokes, giving the typeface a subtle balance between fluidity and geometrical structure. The lowercase “b”; “d”; “q”; “o” and the capitals “O” and “Q” follow these rules. Every other character is condensed, which enhances the presence of round letters. They stand out even more.
Designed to work in a perfect complementarity with Round, Round Condensed shares the same number of styles and weights. The round letters stay strictly the same in both families; the only difference resides in the metrics. Their compatibility enhances the possibilities of creation; it offers dynamic composition insights between body and display texts.
If Round is perfect for text, Round Condensed excels in display size. Thought for titles, editorial design or visual identities, it expands your typographic compositions with a graphic presence that is not to be forgotten.
