Scout

Scout Font Family

Cyrus Highsmith drew Scout and related logotype for Geraldine Hessler’s redesign of Entertainment Weekly. The large family marks the magazine’s first significant typographic update in a decade. Captions and sidebars are set in Regular and Bold; Light, Black, and Condensed styles form the backbone of the display. Scout’s form derives structural elements from both new and old: DIN, Venus, and Cairoli. Among other uses, Scout is recommended for Newspaper, Magazine, Book and Corporate use.
