About
A mono-linear geometric sans by Martin Vacha, first sketched in September 2016 and released in August 2017. The retail family runs to 18 weights and 36 styles across seven weights with matching italics, plus a three-axis variable font on Slant, Weight and Mono. Terminals are clean horizontal and vertical with smooth stem connections, and the bent-pipe motif from the comma is echoed throughout. The single-story g with a rounded bottom corner pulls directly from the Moog logotype. Script coverage is broad: Latin and Central European, revised Greek and Cyrillic, plus Arabic, Hebrew, Japanese and Korean.
Classification
Displaay describes Roobert as a mono-linear, geometric sans-serif with clean horizontal and vertical terminals and smooth stem connections. Originally drawn as a custom typeface for Moogfest 2017, the design echoes the Moog logotype's single-story g with a rounded bottom corner.
