About Arlo Sans Schrëftart

Arlo Sans ass eng geometresch Sans-Serif-Schrëftart, déi fir eng breet Palette vun Uwendungen entworf gouf. D'Buschtawformen enthalen subtile Detailer a Variatiounen, déi en Gefill vu Bewegung erschafen. Breet Konteren an oppe Aperturen ënnerstëtzen eng kloer Liesbarkeet iwwer Gewiichter a Gréissten hinweg. Arlo Sans gouf mat robusten, verlässlechen Formen an engem zäitgenësseschen Charakter entworf, an d'Famill gouf fir Liesbarkeet optiméiert. Méi wéi 20 stilistesch Glyph-Alternativen si abegraff. D'OpenType-Format erlaabt et, d'Schrëftart op all Computer ze benotzen. D'Design gouf vum International Style inspiréiert.
