The shapes and proportions of Tragic Grotesk were designed with the aim of balance and harmony. The openings such as a, c, e and s are semi-open and the stroke endings of these letters are slightly slanted. Furthermore elements from pre-Helvetica times were mixed in: references to the design of grotesque typefaces from the late 19th century. A couple more design properties: Technical, »DIN«-related straight lines have been injected into the round shapes. And finally the ever so slightly curved diagonal strokes as a nod to the calligraphic origins of type. In total Tragic Grotesk is not neutral: It conveys warmth and digital clarity.
