Oceanic Text and Oceanic Grotesk in use: Care

A platform for professional caregivers — and those who need care

18 November 2005

Care.com is a platform where one can find a nanny, caregiver, or petsitter, while professionals in the field can find clients. Druid Sans by NaN is in charge of the website’s headlines, while Oceanic Grotesk by Interval Type is used for its body text. For the logotype and social media posts, designers from Manual Creative opted for a text serif from Oceanic Collection.

The Oceanic collection features five typefaces: a text, a headline, and a monospaced serif, all inspired by the bold type of the 18th and 19th centuries, as well as two sans faces. Oceanic Grotesk embraces the Modernist approach to typography of the mid-20th century, while Oceanic Gothic inherits its design moves from the first sans serifs of the late 19th— early 20th century. Since all these typefaces share the same vertical metrics, they would work well together within a single layout.
