Archer is a slab serif typeface designed in 2001 by Tobias Frere-Jones and Jonathan Hoefler for use in Martha Stewart Living magazine.
[1] It was later released by Hoefler & Frere-Jones for commercial licensing.
The typeface is a geometric slab serif, which takes inspiration from mid-twentieth century designs such as Courier and Landi.
[3][2] Italics are true italic designs, with flourishes influenced by calligraphy, an unusual feature for geometric slab serif designs.
[2][4] The typeface has been used for, among other things, branding for Wells Fargo and is a main font for the San Francisco Chronicle and Wes Anderson's film The Grand Budapest Hotel.
