The Kopius family is a contemporary serif type that features friendly characteristics with round, open counters conveying a relaxed ambiance. The robustness of the characters supports a wide variety of applications including editorial and display use.
The uniquely defined novel glyph construction and serif shapes convey an allusion to a brush stroke that bestows a contemporary, texture-rich appearance entirely in tune with functionality. The top and bottom slightly curved stems imply flow and reading direction.
Kopius is an exuberant family with a genuinely multifaceted repertoire. This upbeat type comes with a multitude of weights to satisfy any fanciful appetite for a colorful typographic palette. With packaging solutions in mind the family includes sets of expandable and combinable box heading material for a boundless range of adjusted composites.
In addition, pertinent labels, weight-adjusted arrows, and word logos complete the Kopius family. OpenType provides advanced layout features including figure sets, small caps, fractions, and more.
Herbert Thannhaeuser’s Liberta, an Antiqua type family designed for the East German type foundry VEB Typoart between the middle to end 1950s, has stirred the initial inspiring force for Kopius. With its affable yet serious demeanor, Kopius is confidently assuming numerous tasks.

Kontour is a creative studio with a focus on type design. Founded by Sibylle Hagmann in 2000, the studio started out with a broad spectrum of projects in the area of graphic, typographic, and type design.
Sibylle Hagmann began her career in Switzerland at the Basel School of Design, exploring her passion for anything type-related in California while completing her MFA at CalArts. During this time she developed typefaces, most notably the award-winning Cholla family, originally commissioned by Art Center College of Design and released soon after by Emigre in 1999. Cholla was among the winning entries of bukva:raz!, the 2001 type design competition of the Association Typographique Internationale (ATypI). Hagmann’s typeface family Odile, first published in 2006, was awarded the Swiss Federal Design Award that same year. Her work has been featured in numerous publications and recognized by the Type Directors Clubs of New York and Japan. Hagmann has presented her work nationally and internationally at typography conferences and educational institutions, also teaching occasional workshops. She has been a professor at the University of Houston’s School of Art since 2002.
