Insights
- Width progression drives personality change: compressed widths read as methodical and structured, while wider settings become open and informal.
- The rectangular-to-oval shape shift across widths is the primary typographic mechanism differentiating each subfamily's character.
- 44 styles across three widths and seven weights are positioned to serve both display logo work and broader branding systems.
