About Cabin Condensed

Cabin Condensed is a narrow humanist sans serif, the condensed counterpart of the Cabin family. In the specimen the round letters keep a slightly oval, pen-influenced shape even at this width, the lowercase g is single-storey, and stroke contrast is low but present where curves meet stems. The official notes are brief: these are the condensed styles of Cabin, and the complete family also exists as a variable font whose weight runs from Regular to Bold and whose width runs from Normal to Condensed. The files on this page are the static condensed fonts: four upright weights, Regular 400, Medium 500, SemiBold 600 and Bold 700, each with 719 glyphs across Latin, Latin Extended and Vietnamese. The name table credits Pablo Impallari, with Igino Marini also named under manufacturer, and the copyright belongs to The Cabin Project Authors.

Where Cabin Condensed works

Navigation and compact interface text
A narrow width with humanist shapes keeps menu items short without the rigid look of a squared condensed face.
Subheads beside Cabin body text
As the condensed styles of the same family, the fonts share letter shapes with regular-width Cabin.
Tables and product listings
Four closely stepped weights let column headers, values and totals be distinguished within narrow cells.
Long headlines
SemiBold and Bold set titles that have to fit on one or two lines of a narrow column.
