Designed by Andrea Biggio for The Designers Foundry, Tomato Grotesk is a modern grotesk family with simple geometric shapes and accentuated contrast that give it a strong display-like personality. High contrast, tight spacing and inktraps make it ideal for use in print and on screens in small sizes. When used in large dimensions these features make it an extremely cheerful, versatile typeface for a range of different uses. Its vibrant type specimen, which was also designed by Biggio, comes in the form of a tabloid newspaper, and features a spree of tomato-themed layouts across its 24 pages. Get your copy
