Designed by Adrian Frutiger in 1977 for Linotype, Glypha is a square-serif type that works well in both text and display applications. It is unusual for a slab serif in that the stroke weights vary slightly.
Glypha is highly legible and its relatively condensed proportions make it usable for magazine work or other projects that have space restrictions.
