Umpire Serif

by Måns Grebäck · Website

Umpire Serif is a heavy Victorian-inflected serif by Mans Greback, built around bold stems, crisp hairline contrast, and swash alternates that bring aristocratic flair. The weight is unapologetically dark and commanding, drawing on 19th-century display type traditions while remaining clean and structured. Decorative alternates let designers dial between restrained authority and full ornamental grandeur.
