  2. Red Hat is a family of typefaces produced in 2 optical sizes and this monospace style, each with a range of weights and with italics.
  3. The fonts were originally commissioned by Paula Scher at Pentagram, and designed by Jeremy Mickel at MCKL for a new Red Hat brand identity.

  6. The Red Hat typefaces are a fresh take on the geometric sans genre, taking inspiration from a range of American sans serifs including Tempo and Highway Gothic.
  7. The <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Red+Hat+Display">Display</a> styles are low contrast and spaced tightly, with a large x-height and open counters.
  8. The <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Red+Hat+Text">Text</a> styles have a slightly smaller x-height and narrower width for better legibility, are spaced more generously, and have thinned joins for better performance at small sizes.
  9. The two families can be used together seamlessly at a range of sizes.
