Semplicità is a sans-serif typeface of the geometric style. It was published by the Nebiolo type foundry of Turin, Italy from around 1928. Semplicità, named for the Italian for "simplicity", is an example of the new wave of "geometric" sans-serifs such as Erbar and Futura appearing in the late 1920s and early 1930s. These designs were based on the proportions of the circle and the square and the influence of Roman square capitals, breaking from traditional "grotesque" designs of the nineteenth century. Semplicità, however, has a number of unusual features, including a 'U' with an angle, following the classical model, and an 'f' which descends below the baseline. It is also a "spurless" design, similar to the contemporary Bernhard Gothic and more recently FF Dax, in which most strokes end w

| - Semplicità is a sans-serif typeface of the geometric style. It was published by the Nebiolo type foundry of Turin, Italy from around 1928. Semplicità, named for the Italian for "simplicity", is an example of the new wave of "geometric" sans-serifs such as Erbar and Futura appearing in the late 1920s and early 1930s. These designs were based on the proportions of the circle and the square and the influence of Roman square capitals, breaking from traditional "grotesque" designs of the nineteenth century. Semplicità, however, has a number of unusual features, including a 'U' with an angle, following the classical model, and an 'f' which descends below the baseline. It is also a "spurless" design, similar to the contemporary Bernhard Gothic and more recently FF Dax, in which most strokes end without terminals. These features give Semplicità an appearance similar to some of the flamboyant, modernist Art Deco lettering of the period. The design of Semplicità has sometimes been credited to type designer Alessandro Butti, but Colizzi and Olocco do not credit it to a single designer, although Butti may have been the final draughtsman. Digitisations are available in commercial releases from Durotype and Canada Type, and an open-source version (shown) from Studio Di Lena, who require attribution as a condition of its use. A proprietary digitisation has also been used by the French clothing company Céline. (en)

C'est aussi une conception sans éperon, semblable à sa contemporaine Bernhard Gothic où à la plus récente FF Dax. Ces caractéristiques donnent à Semplicità une apparence similaire à certains des lettrages flamboyants et modernistes Art Déco de l'époque. Le design de Semplicità a parfois été attribué au créateur de caractères Alessandro Butti mais Colizzi et Olocco ne le créditent pas à un seul designer, bien que Butti ait pu être le dessinateur final. Les numérisations sont disponibles dans les versions commerciales de Durotype et Canada Type, et dans une version open source de Studio Di Lena. Une numérisation propriétaire a également été utilisée par la marque de prêt-à-porter Céline. (fr)
