About
EK Notice is a type system consisting of three families—Sans, Classic, and Decor—each defined by a different level of contrast. All three share the same underlying DNA, so they can be mixed while staying visually coherent. Notice is designed to build hierarchy through expression, without switching type categories.

While the Sans family carries a noticeably low contrast, the Classic family is somewhat more pronounced, drawing on traditional Antiqua forms. The Decor family, by contrast, is guided by a very strong contrast in the classicist Didone tradition, with fine hairlines.
The letter widths follow the classical proportional system of the Roman Capitalis Monumentalis. A grid logic developed specifically for Notice compares the round form of the “O” within a square, which is then related to every other letter.
