## About Passion One

Passion One is a display face in which even the Regular is very heavy. The specimen shows compact, slightly narrow letters with thick strokes and counters reduced to slits. From Regular to Bold to Black the outer shapes swell and the openings inside a, e, o and s get smaller, until in Black they are thin lines. The official notes describe the family as three fonts for titles at large sizes. There is no italic and no variable file. Each font has 269 glyphs in the Latin subset. Fontstage is credited as the designer and holds the copyright; the name table inside the font names Alejandro Lo Celso. Passion One was added to Google Fonts in 2011.

## Where it works

- **Poster titles**: Dense black letters fill a poster line with very little white, which carries from across a room.
- **Sale banners and thumbnails**: A few words in Bold or Black stay visible on busy photographs.
- **Sports and event graphics**: Compact, heavy letters suit scorelines, slogans and team names.
- **Packaging callouts**: Short words such as a flavour or a price read as solid blocks on a label.

## Things to know

- **All weights are heavy**: Regular 400 in Passion One is already darker than the bold of most text families.
- **Counters close at small sizes**: The tiny openings in Black fill in when the type is small; keep it large.
- **Western European coverage**: With 269 glyphs, the letters for Turkish, Polish and Czech are incomplete.
