A Swiss Neo-Grotesque with seven weights and matching italics, balancing rational clarity with subtle warmth for extended reading and editorial use.
About
Influenced by mid-20th century Swiss grotesques, Pilar keeps clean, simple letterforms while introducing small details that prevent it from reading as purely mechanical. The family runs from Hair to Black with italic counterparts throughout, and supports a comprehensive OpenType feature set including discretionary ligatures, fractions, case-sensitive forms and multiple numeral styles. It sits comfortably across both long-form text and display settings.
Classification
Pilar is explicitly influenced by mid-20th century Swiss Neo-Grotesque typefaces, with clean geometric forms and a rational structure softened by subtle humanist details.
