Söhne Extrafett Italic is a masterpiece of modern typography designed by Kris Sowersby of the Klim Type Foundry. It represents the ultimate expression of the Neo-Grotesk genre, drawing heavy inspiration from the legendary Akzidenz-Grotesk and its use in the iconic New York City subway signage. The 'Extrafett' weight is the heaviest in the family, offering a massive, industrial presence while the Italic slant adds a sense of dynamic movement and modernist urgency to the composition.
Released as part of the broader Söhne collection, this typeface captures the 'Standard' sans-serif aesthetic while refining it for contemporary high-resolution screens and luxury print applications. Its design is characterized by tight apertures, high-contrast joints, and a Swiss-style discipline that makes it an essential tool for designers looking for a font that feels both timeless and aggressively modern.
