Hardcover Details

Hardcover (2025) is an elegant serif typeface intended for display use. It was one of my earliest typeface ideas, dating back to a sketch I did while working at one of my first design jobs in 1978, inspired by the slick lettering I’d seen on mass-market book covers. The capitals follow a classic roman model, reminiscent of Times New Roman, but with more modern, simplified forms. The lowercase and figures are constructed similar to the capitals, avoiding features typically associated with lowercase such as ball terminals and angled serifs. Although it may be used in short blocks of text, Hardcover is designed to be used large. It features matching italics and small caps for all weights and a set of dingbats.
