Gara

GARA is a contemporary typeface that revives and reinterprets the typographic legacies of Nicolas Jenson and Claude Garamond, blending Renaissance humanist forms with modern readability. Inspired by historical sources such as The Jenson Roman and Dossier Jannon, the typeface preserves the organic, calligraphic qualities of early printing while adapting key elements—like x-height, serif shape, and spacing—for digital use. Designed for both literary and experimental contexts, GARA balances elegance and clarity across print and screen.
