CoFo Robert Sans

A grotesque with a human touch

Author: Polina Baydin

Most sans-serifs conform to the mechanical, oversimplified rationality, which can often feel a bit cold. Serif typefaces, on the other hand, achieve their neutrality through traditional, centuries-old calligraphic forms—which are far from soulless. CoFo Robert Sans redefines the concept of a daily sans-serif by using its slab-serif counterpart, CoFo Robert, as its structural foundation. It takes those traditional, warm proportions and translates them into a modern, clean grotesque with a human touch.

Its special features are subtle but full of energy: a moderately visible contrast, balanced proportions, and a softness in the curves. Spanning from Light to Black, and packed with small caps, superscript, and subscript figures for both Latin and Cyrillic, it’s the friendly sans you always needed.
