Untitled Case
One superfamily, seven stylistically distinct voices sharing a single vertical grid
Brenner Sans is the neo-grotesque member of Nikola Djurek's Brenner superfamily, released by Typotheque in 2018. It features horizontal terminals, low contrast, and a mechanical structure, with closed counters that produce a dense, compact texture in text. A double-storey 'g' and true italics distinguish it from more neutral grotesques. The family's shared vertical metrics allow Brenner Sans to combine freely with the superfamily's Serif, Display, Mono, Slab, Script, and Condensed Sans styles.
