Grange Text was designed by Rian Hughes and published by Device. Grange Text contains 14 styles and family package options. The font is currently #50 in Hot New Fonts.
Grange Text is optimised for smaller text sizes, having more open character shapes and spacing. Use the non-text version of Grange for larger sizes and headlines, which has tighter spacing and detailing.
Grange is the Device interpretation of the classic “Grot” thick/thin sans style. Unlike the traditional models on which it is based, Grange takes a rational, consistent approach across wide range of weights and widths for contemporary use.
The font includes alternative curved and straighter versions of key characters, most obviously the lower-case ‘g’ and capital ‘R’, allowing the font to take on either a sharper or warmer, more playful appearance. These can be toggled on or off using the ‘Alts’ feature in Illustrator, or ‘Stylistc Sets’ in Indesign. Contains proportional, lining and tabular numerals.
