Inspired by the quirky imperfections of late-19th-century American sans serif typefaces, Anton designed States, a new type family that embraces the irregularities of historic metal type while balancing personality with readability. The family includes States Grotesque and States Rounded, linked by a variable Pressure axis that lets users smoothly adjust between sharp and softened letterforms, with numerous stylistic alternates inspired by vintage printing. To accompany the release, the foundry also produced its first printed type specimen in years, showcasing the typeface across a range of sizes.
