JAF Domus
Just Another Foundry · Tim Ahrens & Shoko Mugikura · 2016
A monolinear, rounded-terminal sans derived from JAF Domus Titling, recalibrated with more economical proportions for sustained text use.
About
Spun off from the display-oriented JAF Domus Titling, this text version by Tim Ahrens and Shoko Mugikura tightens the classical Roman proportions of the original while preserving its soft, generous character. Seven weights from Ultralight to Extrabold each carry matching italics, with the extreme ends of the range suited to headline work and the middle weights comfortable in longer reading settings. The rounded terminals give it a approachable warmth that works well in brand identity contexts, as demonstrated in its use for life sciences company Sphere Fluidics.
Classification
Monolinear construction with rounded terminals and classical Roman proportions adapted for text use, placing it firmly in the geometric sans tradition with humanist softening.
