Pressroom is a modern “legibility face,” designed to be easy-to-read under even the harshest conditions. As you might expect of such a typeface, it’s got an ample x-height, robust serifs, and minimalist descenders—but Pressroom displays more grace and allure than most families of this kind. (Still, despite its relative beauty, its designer describes Pressroom as having “the sophistication of a crocodile.”) Pressroom has regular, italic, bold, and bold italic styles—along with a special black weight intended for headlines, callouts, and other display uses. Numerals are semi-cap in all but the black, where they are fully lining. Would work well in newsletters, flyers, office forms, or even periodicals. US$99.
