RST Trasandina is a variable font with weight axis. Its letterforms are defined by a blend between humanist and geometric sans-serif models. This provides a mixture of broad open shapes with sharp, square and decisive curves that gives Trasandina a unique typographic presence. It draws inspiration from different sources: on one hand mechanical 20th-century German type, specifically industrial wood type such as DIN, and on the other, vibrant and futuristic sci-fi book covers from the 70s and 80s.
This dichotomy is visible in the contrast between the mechanical, sturdy, precise and neutral atmosphere from the regular versions, and the organic and dynamic italics. The progression of weights was carefully explored, culminating in a powerful black weight which is remarkably robust and conveys an intense visual impact.
