Slate was designed by Rod McDonald and published by Monotype. Slate contains 48 styles and family package options. The font is currently #39 in Best Sellers. 

A typeface of grace, power and exceptional versatility, the Slate collection is a truly beautiful design that achieves stellar levels of readability, both in print and on screen.

Created by the award winning type designer Rod McDonald, this six-weight sans serif family is a rare example of sublime aesthetics meeting world-class functionality. The typeface's legible letterforms embody an amalgam of the best traits of both humanistic and grotesque letterforms.

"I didn't want a face with an 'engineered' look, or with any noticeable design gimmicks or devices," admits designer McDonald. "I wanted a pure design. I confess that I was ruthless with any character that wanted to stand out from the rest."

The Slate collection is available in six weights with complementary italics, with slight changes in structure from the light to the black weights. Its light weight is reminiscent of early American sans.

Whether for use in display work or in longer-form settings, few typefaces possess the beauty and power of this design, leaving the Slate family an excellent addition to any designer's typographic quiver.
