Classic, elegant, sober and strong, the Quattrocento typeface has wide and open letterforms. The generous x-height makes it very legible for body text at small sizes, while the tiny details can only be seen at larger sizes mean it is also a great choice for display typography.

Some of their distinctive characteristics are:

• Low Contrast. The thins are just a tad thiner than the thicks, almost monotone.
• Cupped, tapered stems that flows naturally into the serifs.
• Distinctive K, R and & tail.
• Cupped B, D, E, F, P, Q, R and T.
• The Q is a humble expression of admiration and gratitude for Doyald Young.
• Alternate M, Two W alternates.
• Narrow L, T for better fit.
• Almost flat top serif on the lowercases.
• Shoulders of the m and n rise above the serif.
• Serif-less bottom j and y.

It's the perfect sans-serif companion for Quattrocento Sans.
