Heavy soft slabs with broad curved bowls and rounded feet
Hello Thick
Hello Thick sets a heavy slab in squat capitals, its serifs swollen into bulbs and its counters small, so a two-word heading looks pressed into the page rather than typeset.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Hello Thick.
HELLO over THICK fills the card in near black on white petals, the O and the C almost circular, the H with thick stems and the K with a wide arm. Serifs flare out at the top and bottom of every stem, and the tight spacing keeps the rows compact. Small four-point sparkles sit in the margins, which is the only ornament on the page, and two tracked captions frame the sample. The face is playful without being cute, so it suits food, children's brands and posters; its limit is texture, because the swollen serifs and small counters merge on rough stock.

Sign for a bake sale
The fat slab reads across a table and stays friendly, which is what a school bake sale needs from a sign propped on the counter.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 297 by 210 mm sign: set the heading at 70 pt across two rows, keep 20 mm of clear ground beneath before the prices at 14 pt, and keep 18 mm of border so the serifs keep their space.
Pre-production check
Counters fill on a cheap printer; check a copy before running the set. Print a sample and re-check it at final size.
Label for a small chocolate brand
The pressed weight gives a bar a cosy character, and the short brand name fits the squat capitals on a narrow bar label.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 70 by 40 mm wrapper: set the brand at 16 pt on one row, keep 6 mm of clear ground beneath before the cocoa percentage at 5 pt, and keep 4 mm to the fold so the serifs are not cut.
Pre-production check
Bulbous serifs crowd on a fold; check the layout at final size before the print run. Ask the printer for a sample at the finished size.
Cover line for a food title
The heavy slab holds a cover line at shelf distance, and the playful shape keeps a food issue from looking corporate on the newsstand.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 210 by 280 mm cover: set the cover line at 86 pt across one row, keep 22 mm of clear ground beneath before the standfirst at 11 pt, and keep 18 mm of margin from the trim edge.
Pre-production check
Heavy coverage sets off on uncoated paper; check the press proof before the run. Confirm it on a printed sample, not on screen.
