Sans Contrasted Lorum 8 is a light, wide, medium contrast, italic, normal x-height font.
Keywords: headlines, posters, packaging, social media, quotes, casual, airy, handwritten, friendly, lively, approachability, informality, handwritten feel, expressive display, brushlike, monolinear, soft terminals, open counters, slanted.
A slanted sans with a handwritten, brush-pen sensibility and gently varying stroke weight. Forms are open and rounded with generous sidebearings, creating an airy line and a relaxed rhythm. Terminals often taper to soft points, while verticals and diagonals show subtle pressure changes that keep the texture lively without becoming dense. Overall proportions feel broad and slightly irregular in a natural way, with smooth curves and clear, uncluttered counters.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where a friendly, handwritten voice is desired—headlines, posters, packaging, and social content. It can also work for pull quotes or light branding applications where an airy, informal texture helps soften the message.
The tone is informal and personable, balancing neatness with a spontaneous, human touch. Its light, breezy color reads upbeat and approachable, suggesting casual communication rather than strict formality.
Likely designed to provide a legible, modern handwritten alternative that keeps a sans-like simplicity while adding brushy contrast and motion. The goal appears to be warmth and expressiveness without sacrificing clarity in mixed-case text.
Uppercase letters are clean and readable with simplified construction, while lowercase introduces more calligraphic motion, especially in ascenders and entry/exit strokes. Numerals follow the same light, tapered logic and maintain an easy, handwritten continuity alongside the letters.
