About Asap Condensed

Asap Condensed is a narrow sans serif whose stroke ends and corners are slightly rounded, which shows in the specimen at the tips of letters such as A, k and v. The letters are tall and close-set, with a double-storey a, and the numerals are as narrow as the capitals. The family has eight weights, from ExtraLight 200 to Black 900, and an italic for each: 16 styles, supplied as separate static files. It is not a variable font. Each font contains 786 glyphs and covers Latin, Latin Extended and Vietnamese. The official notes describe the Asap design as made for screen and desktop use and as derived from Ancha, a typeface by Pablo Cosgaya and Hector Gatti, with Andrés Torresi collaborating. Omnibus-Type publishes the family under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

Where Asap Condensed works

Headlines in narrow columns

The condensed letters fit more characters per line, and ExtraBold and Black keep a short headline heavy enough to lead a page.

Tables and dashboards

Narrow numerals and capitals leave room for more columns before a table has to scroll.

Navigation and labels on phones

Regular and Medium hold menu items and tab labels on one line where a normal-width sans would wrap.

Captions and side notes

Each of the eight weights has an italic, so credits and notes can be set apart without a second family.

Layouts built with Asap

Asap Condensed shares the rounded corners of Asap, so it can take over where the regular width runs out of space.
