Lato Italic, designed by Lukasz Dziedzic for tyPoland, is a free humanist sans serif with a measured forward slant. Its slim strokes change width gently, giving the letters a softer, less mechanical finish than a strictly geometric italic. Broad capitals and rounded lowercase forms keep the overall silhouette calm and evenly paced.
Packaging can use its understated slant for skincare labels and contemporary food branding, where refinement matters more than theatrical display. It also suits magazine features and cultural event programs. It is especially convincing in editorial text with a quiet, conversational voice.

説明
Lato is a sanserif typeface family designed in the Summer 2010 by Warsaw-based designer Lukasz Dziedzic ("Lato" means "Summer" in Polish). It tries to carefully balance some potentially conflicting priorities: it should seem quite "transparent" when used in body text but would display some original traits when used in larger sizes. The classical proportions, particularly visible in the uppercase, give the letterforms familiar harmony and elegance. At the same time, its sleek sanserif look makes evident the fact that Lato was designed in 2010, even though it does not follow any current trend. The semi-rounded details of the letters give Lato a feeling of warmth, while the strong structure provides stability and seriousness.
