01
How much heavier is the Bold?
About one and a half times. The stem of the n is 82 units wide in Regular and 120 in Bold, while both keep the same heights, so a name in Bold and a line in Regular sit on one label without a change of size.
Granaio
A warm slab serif family for shop signs, labels and price cards.
Granaio is a warm slab serif display family in three styles: Regular, Bold and SC, the small caps. Its name means the granary where a farm keeps its harvest, and its letters come from the names painted on farm-shop boards and delivery vans: heavy, friendly and a little narrow, with the soft touch of a sign-painter's brush. It carries the comfort of fresh bread, honey jars and homemade goods set out for sale. Set it on shop signs, labels, packaging and price cards.

Notes on the design
Granaio comes from the slab serif names that sign painters brushed on shop boards and delivery vans. We kept the weight and the narrow, upright build of those letters and softened every corner, so a name reads loud from across the road and still looks friendly on a jar.
02
Why does it fit on a narrow label?
The letters are built a little narrow: the n takes 392 units of the 1000-unit body in Regular and the H 486. A long name fits on a jar or a price card at a larger size than a wide slab serif would allow.
03
Why are the tops of d and h so heavy?
Each ascender starts at its top 138 units wide and settles to about 85 lower down, like a brush that lands with pressure and then moves on. The heavy heads give a name the look of a painted sign.
04
What is the SC style for?
SC replaces the lowercase with small capitals 500 units tall, a touch above the 485-unit lowercase of Regular. Their stems are drawn again at 84 units, next to 90 in the capitals, so the small line keeps the colour of the name above it.
