CONCEPT:
Laica is the Italian translation for Laic. Laica is a slightly conflicting type family, with a lot of hidden details, often not completely compatible. Composed by three weights: Regular, Bold, and Italic, which are designed explicitly for running texts covering the specific range size of 9–12 pt.
