Grid-strict geometry that flexes from retro to machine-like
Edge is a slab serif family designed by Ermin Međedović and released by Typotheque in 2021. Built on an orthogonal grid using 0°, 45°, and 90° angles, it comes in Sans and Slab variants across nine weights each. Thin styles break letter counters into separate elements, while heavier weights rely on rhythmic repetition of forms. Alternative characters, including diagonal variants, a grid-strict version, and a more loosely drawn version, are accessible via Stylistic Sets.

Insights
- The Sans and Slab variants share an identical underlying grid, ensuring structural consistency across both subfamilies.
- Thin weights use broken counters to fragment letterforms into separate elements, a decision that shifts at heavier weights toward rhythmic repetition.
- Stylistic Sets expose alternate characters spanning diagonal forms, a strictly grid-adhering version, and a more loosely drawn version, allowing contextual tuning without altering the base design.
