About this font

Sedan is a serif typeface with a traditional foundation and two available styles: normal and italic. With a single regular weight, it is best approached as a focused text and display option rather than a broad system for complex typographic hierarchies. Its restrained setup can help keep projects visually consistent.

Best suited for: Use Sedan for editorial headings, book-style layouts, invitations, quotations, short articles, and branding that benefits from a serif character. The italic style can bring distinction to emphasis, captions, pull quotes, or brief supporting text without introducing a separate family.

Design considerations: Since Sedan is available at weight 400 only, it offers no built-in bold or light steps for strong contrast within the family. Use size, spacing, placement, and the normal-versus-italic distinction to establish hierarchy. For longer passages, test reading comfort at the intended size, especially where several levels of text are needed.

Pairing guidance: A restrained sans serif can provide useful contrast for navigation, labels, interface text, or small metadata. Alternatively, pair Sedan with another serif only when their proportions and details are clearly distinct. Keep the supporting typeface moderate in personality so the normal and italic styles remain easy to recognize.
