Rosso is a condensed geometric sans-serif typeface with a retro style, inspired by various typographic styles. It features the Roslyn Gothic structure, which was widely used on the covers of Philip K. Dick’s books during the 1970s.

Rosso offers 10 weights, ranging from Ultra Light to Black, each with its corresponding italic. It is also divided into two subfamilies: Normal and Alt.

The Normal subfamily remains faithful to the proportions of Roslyn Gothic and classic geometric typefaces, while the Alternative version expands its rounded forms, creating a striking rhythm and contrast characteristic of Art Deco typefaces.

It also includes alternative glyphs and discretionary ligatures inspired by the work of Herb Lubalin, offering greater possibilities for tackling any design project.

All of this makes Rosso a font full of personality—eye-catching and instantly recognizable—ideal for creating logos, impactful headlines, movie posters, and volumetric posters, among other applications.
