    Each of the various people looking at the cow sees her in a way which is related to his occupation and his talents. The butcher sees the cow primarily as so many pounds of meat, so many pounds of fat, and so many pounds of bones.

Typeface information

GT Era reimagines the warmth and idiosyncrasies of early grotesk typefaces for our own era. These pre-modernist tools were being pushed to their extremes in the radical designs of the modernist movements—like Bauhaus and De Stijl—of the period. The typeface shuns neutrality and embraces friction, championing recognition over uniformity and flavor over conformity.
