Copperplate Gothic Heavy

Copperplate Gothic Heavy was designed by Frederic W. Goudy in 1901 and released by the American Type Founders (ATF). Despite the 'Gothic' in its name, which usually implies a sans-serif style, it is actually a glyphic typeface featuring tiny, sharp wedge serifs that evoke the look of letters engraved into copper plates.

The typeface is defined by its monolinear weight and all-capital character set, which excludes lowercase letters in favor of small caps. It has become an industry standard for professional stationery, business cards, and legal documents due to its clean, authoritative, and sophisticated aesthetic that bridges the gap between classic and modern design.
