New Fonts from H&FJ: Sentinel

Introducing Sentinel®, a new slab serif that picks up where others leave off. We designed Sentinel for everyone who's ever wished Clarendons had italics, everyone whose favorite slab serif is shy a few weights, and everyone who's ever needed a slab serif to thrive in text.

A new take on a lovely and useful historical style, Sentinel is a refreshingly complete family in twelve weights (Light through Black, with italics throughout) that's designed to shine in sizes both large and small. Featuring text-friendly features like short-ranging figures, and our Latin-X™ character set for extended language support.

This broad collection of American gothics brings out Sentinel's more colorful side, helping the fonts go sentimental, charming, flamboyant, or brash.

Designers asked if Gotham® could be reimagined in other widths, and we listened. Introducing 46 new Gothams for 2009: Gotham Narrow, the compact variation that's specially engineered for text, Gotham Extra Narrow, a headline collection in sixteen styles, and the newly extended Gotham Condensed, now featuring nine weights from Thin to Ultra, all with matching italics.
