Pairs well with

  • Body

    Barlow

    A delicate high-contrast serif for the headline and a low-contrast grotesk for the reading: the difference in stroke contrast does the separating, and Barlow's nine weights cover every level beneath the display line.

BPOZZ Design Note

Colophon shaped it for super-sized poster settings and made a separate DM Serif Text for smaller point sizes. That companion is not in the BPOZZ library, so text below headline size needs a different face rather than this Display cut.
