Gimlet Sans is a Grotesque sans serif companion
to my typeface Gimlet, which was in turn inspired
by Georg Trump’s 1938 typeface Schadow. While
superelliptical sans serifs can sometimes feel cold,
Gimlet Sans harnesses Schadow’s unique blend of
geometric clunkiness and organic spunkiness to
add some bounce and liveliness to the mix.

the series, the culmination of an ambitious designspace
that covers weight, width, optical size, and italics.
