A revised neo-grotesque sans derived from Aileron, refined for improved UI legibility and naturalness across eight weights with italics.

About

Nacelle reworks Dot Colon's earlier Aileron, retaining its core aim of a readable, distinguishable neo-grotesque for UI contexts while adjusting metrics and fine details throughout. Eight weights run from Thin to Black, each with a matching italic, making it a practical free option for screen-focused work. Released under the SIL Open Font License, it permits modification and redistribution including commercial use.

Classification

The foundry explicitly describes Nacelle as a neo-grotesque sans-serif, revised from their earlier Aileron typeface with improved metrics and details for UI legibility.
