Type and Graphic Design
Revue is an expressive, versatile typeface family inspired by the drama and typographic style of 19th-century theatre posters. Its 12 serif styles — Romans and Italics — are grouped by contrast: High, Low, and Slab. Each shares a stem width within its weight, exploring contrast, serif shape, and proportion to evoke distinct tones and dramatic tension. The family also includes a Grotesk, based on the Slab’s structure and tuned to echo its rhythm in sans form, and a Hanzi Slab, an experimental serif-gothic hybrid that brings the same sense of character across scripts.
