Ways
Fontfabric · Viktoria Usmanova, Plamen Motev · 2022
A nine-weight humanist grotesque with ink traps and variable fonts, designed for legibility across signage, editorial and digital work.
About
Developed by Viktoria Usmanova and Plamen Motev at Fontfabric, Ways spans nine weights from Thin to Black, each with a matching italic, plus two variable fonts and an icons set — 21 styles in total. Ink traps, wider apexes and considered spacing underpin its legibility at both large and small sizes. Extended Latin and Cyrillic coverage with a full suite of OpenType features makes it suited to international projects across branding, UI and environmental graphics.
Classification
Ways blends grotesque structure with humanist detail — ink traps, wider apexes, and extra white space give it warmth alongside functional rigour. Fontfabric describe it as a mix of brutal and elegant details with humanist flair.
