Typeface Design for a Multi-Width Sans Serif
Industrial construction, eight weights, three widths
Surogat is an industrial sans serif designed by Nikola Djurek, released by Typotheque in 2014, characterised by dominant horizontal strokes and mechanically constructed letterforms. The family spans three widths—Normal, Condensed, and Compressed—each in eight weights, intended for headline and body text use in print and digital contexts.
