Kiro specimen from Dharma Type

A condensed, semi-modular sans by Ryoichi Tsunekawa with a large x-height and subtly rounded corners across six weights.

About

Designed by Ryoichi Tsunekawa, Kiro is a condensed sans-serif built on a semi-modular structure where unnecessary stems are stripped away and corners carry a slight rounding. The family runs to 12 styles across six weights from Thin to ExtraBold, each with a matching italic. A generous x-height keeps it legible at body sizes, while the narrow proportions make it well suited to headlines and tight editorial layouts.

Classification

A minimal condensed sans-serif with semi-modular construction and subtly rounded corners, sitting between geometric and humanist tendencies without committing fully to either.
