Roman Extended

HWT Roman Extended is a pairing of opposites in heft, but comrades in expansion. Fatface is a super-high contrast design, while Lightface offers delicate elegance. What they have in common is width. With Fatface, rather than reviving one version, designer Jim Lyles combined the best historical details. Lightface, a rare find in print shops, was recreated by Miranda Roth, maintaining grace and showcasing subtle contrast and wide, bracketed serifs. Both faces are eye-popping in large sizes!
