Built for a magazine reinvention
Designed by Berton Hasebe and Tim Ripper, Review was originally drawn by Hasebe as a custom typeface for T: The New York Times Style Magazine. A 2018 editorial change shifted the publication from image-led to text-driven, with Review doing much of the heavy lifting. Hasebe sheared the typeface's overshoots and blunted its exterior curves to enable tighter horizontal and vertical setting, leaving the interior counters round and producing a dynamic tension. Dense setting forms strong horizontal text bands evoking embossing type, without grunge or sentimentality.
