Primary Typeface

The Henderson BCG Serif font font includes small finishing strokes at the ends of letters, conveying authority, depth, and established knowledge.

Henderson BCG Serif is used in these specific areas:

  • As a large-scale, title-case headline in all digital and Out of Home (OOH) marketing environments. A headline is the dominant, largest text on a page or asset. There is typically only one headline per piece

Usage Guidance

  • Regular is the default and should be used in most cases
  • Use Bold sparingly to highlight key information or support accessibility
