Shandon Slab
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
Shandon Slab is a slab serif with smooth flow, ligature options, and firm slabs. It has a clear rhythm that helps names, short titles, and display lines stay readable. That makes posters, editorial work, branding, and packaging feel more finished without looking overworked.
Designed by Dieter Hofrichter in 2018. It includes 604 glyphs with Latin and Greek support. Features like ligatures, italic styles give it more flexibility across packaging, covers, and branding work.
Shandon Slab works well for posters, editorial work, branding, packaging. It reads best in logos, package fronts, invitations, posters, and other short settings where the letter style needs to carry the mood. It also stays useful on labels, social graphics, and brand materials where clear display text matters. It is free for personal use, with separate licensing available for commercial work.
