    About Acropolis Font Family


    A reimagined display face, with a twist.

    The Acropolis typeface was designed by Jonathan Hoefler in 1992. Acropolis is a design in the ‘grecian’ style, a genus of slab serif characterized by chamfered corners, which emerged in the late Georgian period and flourished in the United States of the mid-nineteenth century. A part of The Proteus Project, the typographic theme-and-variations based on related Regency styles, Acropolis was the first grecian type family to include a companion cursive italic. Acropolis was created for Rolling Stone, in whose pages the typeface first appeared in 1993.>

    Lacking any historical precedent, Acropolis Italic attempts to be sympathetic to historical form while avoiding nostalgic clichés.
