A narrow contrast sans by Martin Vacha and Daniel Quisek, traced from a Sardinian road sign and the Italian Alfabeto Stretto.
About
A narrow contrast sans-serif by Martin Vacha and Daniel Quisek, first sketched in July 2021 and released in April 2025. Eight weights run from Thin to Black with matching italics, sixteen styles total, plus a variable font on Slant and Weight axes. The construction starts from the rhombus-shaped zero on a Sardinian road sign, with stem contrast pulled through the rest of the alphabet. The witty name marks the contrast between perfect shapes and deliberately imperfect construction.
Classification
Displaay describes Perfektta as a sans-serif with narrow proportions and clearly visible contrast in the stems. The starting point was a Sardinian road sign with a rhombus-shaped zero, later traced back to the Italian Alfabeto Stretto, a narrowed and bolder modification of British Transport.
