Squatina Font

Squatina Font

Squatina is a condensed grotesque sans-serif that reconstructs a specific moment in French typographic history — the Antiques Modernes distributed by Tellenbach & Cie, Roman Scherer, the French Typographic Foundry, and Jacoby & fils, working from an incomplete original character set. The letterforms carry the distinctive proportional tension of that period: tightly set, slightly squat, and possessed of a graphic boldness that feels immediately usable in contemporary design.


Squatina is a historically reconstructed condensed grotesque in our free font collection — drawn from 19th-century French type specimens and refined for contemporary display use.
