Paris Metro Font

Paris Metro Font is a custom typeface. This sans-serif font was developed to enhance legibility and optimize space on signage, making it particularly effective for the long station names typical of the Paris Métro.
Characterized by its condensed proportions and strong terminals, Parisine offers improved readability over traditional typefaces like Helvetica. Over the years, it has evolved into a versatile family of fonts used in various communication materials and maps, reflecting the rich design heritage of Paris. Its adoption extends beyond France, influencing subway signage systems worldwide.
