Richard Lipton designed Shogun as a six-part headline series, three weights in regular and extended widths.

He began with a few almost oriental characters from a striking contemporary logotype designed by Los Angeles graphic designer, Margo Chase.

The size of the series allows Chase’s ideas to be applied to a variety of display uses, offering a set of weights and widths that repeat unusually similar shapes and themes.

Among other uses, Shogun is recommended for Book and Corporate use.
