Spencer Platt
Spencer Platt is a distinctive display serif typeface that bridges traditional newspaper typography with contemporary editorial design. The face features sharp, angular serifs with pronounced contrast between thick and thin strokes, creating a bold presence ideal for headlines and impactful statements. Its letterforms display a slightly condensed proportion with tall x-height, while the terminals show crisp, geometric cuts rather than traditional bracketed serifs. The overall character suggests influence from both classic newspaper types and modern high-contrast serif designs, making it particularly effective for editorial applications where authority and readability must coexist.
