Description

Broadacre is a geometric sans intersected with Broadway, the archetypal Art Deco typeface drawn by MF Benton in 1927. Greg Thompson’s typeface pays homage to Benton’s iconic capitals and adds an all-new lowercase and small caps. Choose the right intensity of deco goodness from 25 individual styles in a variety of weights, or use the variable font version to create your own.

Broadacre is a font family from Greg Thompson Type—a member of The Type Founders collection. For additional license options like app, enterprise, multi-user, and self-hosted web, visit Greg Thompson Type.
