‘Sendai’ is a new 6-weight typeface family, designed by British type designer Philip Kelly. The typeface is comfortable in text
usage with the slightly condensed shapes that help save space and also achieve punchy display headlines. The restrained serifs
are a nod to the Latin styles of the past.
The fonts are available exclusively from Philip Kelly Digital Design directly. The fonts are supplied in OpenType Postscript format
which is Mac and Windows compatible.(Brochure with prices and license wording, available).
