A type specimen for No Somos Historicas, a Spanish-language feminist media group, showing bold black headline type and multiple sans-serif weights on a bright yellow background.
Summary
A type-specimen sheet for No Somos Historicas, the first Spanish-language feminist media group in the USA, displaying headline type, supporting weights, and body copy on bright yellow with black typography and horizontal dividers.
Visual description
A landscape-oriented sheet with a bright yellow background and black typography divided by thin horizontal lines. The header row shows Jevas Combativas and Typography Suite on either side. The main centerpiece displays the headline NO SOMOS HYSTERICAS, SOMOS HISTORICAS in large, bold all-caps sans-serif, followed by descriptive text labeling the typeface weights (Previously Condensed Bold, Work Sans Semi-Bold) and body copy in gray-black. A footer credits Kathie Baptista Creative Studio and the Instagram handle @kathiebaptista. The layout uses left-aligned text with consistent vertical rhythm and clear labeling of typographic systems.
Key takeaway
The use of bright, flat color blocking to make typography itself the focal point without imagery. Multiple labeled typeface weights create a functional specimen that teaches viewers the system. Horizontal division lines organize hierarchy without visual complexity.
Reuse notes
Ideal for editorial or nonprofit branding where cultural identity and messaging matter equally. The yellow-on-black contrast is high-energy and activist-friendly, working well for social causes, media groups, and publishing. Best suited to projects where typography is the primary brand asset.
