Author's note

Serif6 Bold Italic by Stefan Hattenbach of MAC Rhino is a free high-contrast italic serif with an elegant calligraphic sweep. Broad curves meet very fine hairlines, and the slanted letters carry long, sharply tapered finishing strokes. Its silhouette is fluid and formal.

Editorial design is an especially good setting for this pronounced thick-thin structure, from fashion features to culture supplements. The same drawing suits perfume packaging, invitations, and classical music posters, where its refined theatrical note fits the subject. In publishing, it can shape expressive cover lines and section openers, combining the authority of a traditional serif with the movement of handwritten forms.
