Goudy Lanston
Reimagined by Steve Matteson in 2025. Goudy Lanston was designed by Frederic Goudy for Lanston Monotype and the Caslon Typefoundry in 1912. Originally named “Antique” the typeface was sold to Lanston Monotype for machine casting. Goudy’s aim was to produce a typeface akin to Jenson’s Roman with a dark, rich texture and sturdy profile. The family includes text, subhead and display versions to optimize elegance at large sizes and rich color in text.

Goudy Lanston Text
The main storm was soon over, and, eager to see the newborn talus, I ran up the valley in the moonlight and climbed it before the huge blocks, after their wild fiery flight, had come to complete rest. They were slowly settling into their places, chafing, grating against one another, groaning, and whispering; but no motion was visible except in a stream of small fragments pattering down the face of the cliff at the head of the talus. A cloud of dust particles, the smallest of the boulders, floated out across the whole breadth of the valley and formed a ceiling that lasted until after sunrise; and the air was loaded with the odor of crushed Douglas Spruces, from a grove that had been mowed down and mashed like weeds.
