Fuzar specimen from lo-ol Type

A geometric grotesque in three widths with an expressive italic that draws on serif calligraphic traditions, from Swiss designers Loris Olivier and Noheul Lee.

About

Built on a geometric skeleton, the upright cuts deliver structured, high-contrast strokes typical of neo-grotesque design, while the italic cuts break from convention with proportions and fluidity more akin to classical serif italics. The family spans nine weights from Thin to Black across Normal, Semi-Condensed and Condensed widths, giving 54 styles in total. Latin coverage extends to a wide range of languages including many minority and indigenous scripts.

Classification

Fuzar is described by the foundry as a neo-grotesque with a geometric skeleton, placing it at the intersection of geometric and grotesque sans-serif traditions. The upright cuts follow geometric construction while the italics adopt a more fluid, serif-influenced rhythm.
