Gill Sans

Mind the gap! Does Gill Sans look familiar? It’s widely popular for it’s use across all British railways. The iconic font was created by Eric Gill for the Monotype Corporation. Interestingly enough, Gill Sans is considered both modern and classical thanks to it’s perfect blend of classic serif types and Roman inscriptions.
