Canela Collection began as an interpretation of Caslon, but gradually was taken in a new and unexpected direction, shedding its serifs and leaving only vestigial flaring at the ends of strokes, taking on a monumental quality influenced by the author’s experience with stone carving. Canela is a graceful display typeface that defies many of the traditional classifications. Its forms are in an ambiguous space between sans and serif, both soft and sharp, modern yet with roots in the classical. Canela debuted in issue 5 of fashion and art magazine Document Journal in 2014 and after that appeared on music album covers, Future Affairs 2019 conference identity and on an Italian Scooter Museum website. Canela Deck is optimized for the “middle sizes”: subheads and pull quotes in editorial layouts, and all but the largest display sizes on the web. It works well at 20–48pt
