New Aster LT Font Family was designed by Francesco Simoncini, Linotype Design Studio and published by Linotype. New Aster LT contains 8 styles and family package options. This book and newspaper font was designed by Francesco Simoncini in 1958. After the Second World War brought type design to a standstill, the years of reconstruction meant a reconsideration of old values in the typographical world as well as in Europe in general. Aster is the result of this movement, displaying instead of Modern Face influence, a tendency toward Transitional characteristics and giving text a light feel.
