Who hasn't admired the energy of Antique Olive Nord?
All other ultrabolds seem sluggish in comparison. Nord exudes Excoffon's animation and Gallic impatience with the rules.
Tobias Frere-Jones cross-bred the weight, proportion, and rhythms of Nord with the casual grace of his own Cafeteria, gaining informality and a dancing vitality on the page.
In his words,
Asphalt swings with ‘a lively, if faintly inebriated gyration’.
Among other uses,
Asphalt is recommended for Magazine and Book use.
