Popular LucasFonts fonts.
TheSans is a modern classic. A favourite for corporate design, editorial design and new media, it comes in an astounding range of widths and weights, including a large set of hairline fonts. It is part of Luc(as) de Groot’s legendary Thesis superfamily.
TheSerif is part of the Thesis superfamily. Although it was conceived to be the perfect secondary font within the Thesis system – for use in headlines, subheads, pull quotes, etc. – TheSerif has also been used successfully as a text font in its own right.
TheMix is a semi-serif typeface with low contrast – i.e., the differences between thin and thick strokes are not very pronounced. Yet the reference to writing with the broad-nibbed pen is still present, giving the letters a diagonal stress and a forward flow that facilitates reading. It is part of Luc(as) de Groot’s legendary Thesis superfamily.
Although the members of the Thesis family have proven to work well as text faces, nothing beats a medium-contrast oldstyle for comfortable immersive reading. Hence TheAntiqua, an all-purpose text face whose name refers to the traditional Dutch/German word for oldstyle.
