About
A humanist sans by Matt Burvill, Maria Fontenelle, Diogo Rapazote, Eduardo Rennó and Deiverson Ribeiro, drawn for modern product UIs. Nine weights run from Hairline to Black with matching italics, and a 3-axis variable font adds the Darkmode axis that rebalances stroke weight against the Irradiation Illusion when type sits on dark backgrounds. Multi-script coverage across Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew and Latin and a matching Mono make it a complete UI system for tech, fintech and product brands.
Classification
Dalton Maag describe Darkmode as a highly legible humanist sans for modern UIs, with Weight and Italic axes and a Darkmode axis that counteracts the Irradiation Illusion to keep contrast consistent across light and dark backgrounds.
