Notes From The Reading Room
The reading room opens onto a quiet courtyard. Along the shelves, small handwritten labels mark the collections. A visitor leaves a book open beside the window, keeping a place for the next reader.
A heading marks the next chapter. The margins leave room for a note while the text continues across the page.

The orchard letters, read aloud
Matthew Desmond started Lustria in 1999, and it took until January 2012 to reach the public, as a MADType font on Google Fonts. It is a text serif with rounded serifs, and Desmond put enough detail into it that it still holds interest set large.
1 Regular, kerning, 253 Latin glyphs. With no bold and no italic, a long article will need a partner face for emphasis. A pull quote or a short intro paragraph can manage on its own.
