Constantia Display was designed by John Hudson, assisted by Paul Hanslow, as a companion to the Constantia text family, initially targeting titles in Powerpoint slide templates but suitable to a wide range of larger size uses. Constantia Display is not simply a size-specific adaptation of the Constantia design, but is a distinct ​‘cut’ featuring different forms in some letters, notably the crossbar of the E and related shapes. Overall, the Constantia Display cut is lighter than the text font, with narrower proportions, tighter spacing, and smaller x‑height.

Constantia Display works as a harmonic companion to Constantia, of course, but also as a stand-alone titling and headline type to be used contrastively with, for example, a sans serif text face.
