Type Gallery – Sabon
Jan Tschichold created the font Sabon® and based his typeface design on a version of Garamond™ designed by Jakob Sabon and Conrad Berner. Sabon was similar produced for three foundrys: D.Stempel AG, Linotype and Monotype. Classic, elegant, and extremely legible, the font Sabon is one of the most beautiful Garamond variations.
The font Sabon combines well with:
Almost all sans serif fonts in the style of Frutiger® or Syntax®.
Slab serif fonts like PMN Caecilia®, Egyptienne 505.
Script and brush fonts like Sho™, Ruling Script™.
Black letters like Old English, Clairvaux™.
Fun fonts like Grafilone™, Animalia™, Araby Rafique™.
