Homie specimen from Blaze Type

A humanist sans by Ethan Nakache that blends geometric structure into its letterforms, shifting contrast as weights increase from text to display.

About

Designed by Ethan Nakache and released in 2023, it draws on 20th-century French humanist type while pulling the forms toward geometry. Lighter weights keep contrast low for text legibility; bolder weights lean into higher contrast suited to display work. The family spans 18 styles across nine weights with matching italics, and is also available as a variable font.

Classification

Described by the foundry as a humanist sans with geometric influences, drawing from 20th-century French humanist typefaces. The design shifts from legible text proportions at light weights to more geometric, high-contrast forms at display weights.
