Grato & Gratimo Grotesk

Designed by Jakob Runge and Mona Franz, Grato & Gratimo Grotesk is a sans serif font family. This typeface has twenty-one styles and was published by TypeMates.

The geometric Grotesk is available in two optical sizes: Grato Grotesk is geared for branding and identity design in larger sizes and purer geometry. If you need less geometry and more legibility, Gratimo Grotesk is engineered for text and interface design.

Grato Grotesk is the modernist of the Geometric Suite. A resolute typeface with flat apexes and no-nonsense angled terminals, it combines a clean, contemporary aesthetic with idiosyncrasy and warmth.
Grato is shaped by pure forms, low stroke modulation and square dots that contrast with almost perfect circles. Grato Grotesk takes that core and pursues the industrial logic of early German geometric typefaces. The result is a typeface of quirks and clarity, a substantial family for identity and editorial work. With a spectrum of nine weights, from fine Hairlines to super heavy Blacks, Grato can organise complex typographic hierarchies with ease.

Gratimo Grotesk is an utilitarian family purpose-built for everyday use, a powerful workhorse that combines elementary shapes and precise construction.
Where Grato Grotesk revels in pure geometry, Gratimo Grotesk has a practical focus. With a robust x-height, open apertures and generous spacing, its more restrained forms were the result of Grato being redrawn for reading. The result is a neo-grotesque that draws on American Gothics from the early 20th century and makes something fresh.
An allrounder specialising in smaller reading sizes and lower resolutions, Gratimo Grotesk is suitable for user interfaces and longform writing. With a compact texture, it is efficient, robust and ready to work at any size. For serious typography, Gratimo comes equipped with six weights, from Thin to sturdy Black. For greater distinction, it has matching italics.

Both combined are a super pack with 21 font styles and a long-lasting companion for brands that value diversity in language and clear screen performance.
