Coral guideline page showcasing the hero typeface Oldschool Grotesk as a giant two-line specimen with a short description block.
Summary
A coral page giving the hero typeface its own spread: "Oldschool Grotesk" set enormous across two lines with a brief note on its character.
Visual description
Full hot-coral background. Top-left: an outlined "Our typography" pill and a "Hero typeface" label. The words "Oldschool Grotesk" fill most of the slide in soft-white, set very large and bold across two lines. In the lower-right corner, a small text block headed "Oldschool Grotesk Compact Extra Bold" describes its warm analogue feel, soft curves and use for visual expression.
Key takeaway
Letting the typeface name itself, set at maximum size, be the entire specimen, with a tucked-away description that does not compete. The corner text block keeps the rationale present without breaking the display moment.
Reuse notes
The canonical full-bleed specimen page for a hero/display face. The giant-name-plus-corner-caption layout is reusable for any feature typeface. Needs a face distinctive enough to carry a whole page; pairs with the functional-face specimen on slide 35.
