⚠️ Notice: As a showcase of variable fonts, this site requires a web browser that supports OpenType font variation technology. It looks like your browser doesn’t, so please consider upgrading to one that does (the latest versions of Chrome work well, even on older operating systems). Otherwise, the font samples below will only appear as static fonts.
Typefaces where diagonal stroke intersections in letters like M, N, W, and Z are boxy due to reduced overlap at the intersections. (Some typefaces listed here may have the boxy letters stored as stylistic alternate glyphs.)
A sans typeface designed with/for Base Design.
