Tyro Sans Police

Tyro Sans by Kirk Shelton is a free high-contrast display serif with a poised and fashion-minded silhouette. Long, fine strokes meet broad verticals, giving the letters an elegant but slightly unconventional construction. The open curves and sweeping diagonals keep the design airy, and its noticeably varied proportions add interest without disturbing the clean finish, even where hairline strokes become extremely fine and sharply tapered.

Its Didone flavor suits magazine covers and fashion campaigns. That same mix of slender detail and dramatic scale also suits cosmetics packaging, literary book jackets, and cultural event posters, linking each application through a refined editorial sensibility.
