Klein Font
I am very happy that lucky to be introduced to you a great fonts family. This is a family of fonts with 54 fonts.
Introducing Klein Font Family! It’s designed by Francesco Canovaro, Cosimo Pancini and Andrea Tartarelli, and was published by Zetafonts. Klein is Zetafonts love letter to the grandmother of all geometric sans typefaces, Futura.
Starting from a dialogue with Paul Renner’s iconic letterforms and proportions, Francesco Canovaro and Andrea Tartarelli decided to depart from its distinctive modernist shapes with slight humanist touches and grotesque solutions – with some design choices evoking the softness of humanist sans serifs like Gill Sans.
The end result is a workhorse superfamily of 54 fonts with full multilingual capabilities and coverage of over two hundred languages using latin, cyrillic and greek alphabets.
The original display-oriented family, developed in nine weights with matching italics (from the hairline thin to the sturdy black), has been paired with a text version (with slightly higher x-height, better readability and maximum legibility at small point size) and with a condensed version, to be used for space-saving display solutions in editorial and advertising formats.
