Algebra evolved from Granger, a headline typeface designed by Susana Carvalho and Kai Bernau for the US edition of Esquire in 2010. This broad-shouldered slab serif typeface is built on super-elliptical forms. Its loose spacing gives a remarkably comfortable texture in long passages of text, with its even rhythm working well on screen, on newsprint, and for magazine and book design.
