Arillatype · Pedro Arilla · 2024
A proportional text face by Pedro Arilla that borrows the texture and rhythm of monospaced type without its fixed spacing constraints.
About
Designed with reference to the precision of technical handbooks and monospaced fonts, it flows as a conventional text typeface across six weights from Light to Bold, plus a Retina cut optimised for high-density screens. The family ships with 12 styles, a 855-glyph character set covering 279 languages, and an extensive OpenType feature set including small caps, old-style figures, circled numbers and fractions. Variable font files are included with the full family purchase.
Classification
Draws directly from the texture and rhythm of monospaced fonts but functions as a proportional text typeface; the humanist sans classification fits its blend of technical precision and fluid readability.
