Hi. I’m looking for a condensed sans serif that comes in a decent set of weights including a light. I want something that has the formal structure of, say, Akzidenz or Univers but with slightly rounded edges. I don’t mean something explicitly rounded, just a softer more ‘modern’ edge.

Village’s Section is quite good but more condensed would be nice…

Any tips greatly appreciated.

Another Process face: Bryant has soft edges and condensed styles.

Stainless has forms similar to Section.

Sophisto is modern too, but it’s not very soft.

And there’s the recently popular Neo Sans, but it’s no more condensed than Section.

Maybe Stalemate (slightly condenced)… http://www.macrhino.com

Stephen,

Thanks for mentioning Sophisto :-)
