Kleide
Nootype · 2014
A handwriting-inspired humanist sans in six weights with italics, released by Nootype in 2014 with broad European character support.
About
Six weights from Thin to Black, each with a matching italic, give the family reasonable range for editorial and branding work. Calligraphic influence runs through the letterforms, lending a lightness suited to refined or fashion-adjacent contexts. OpenType features include fractions, ordinals, proportional and tabular figures, and a generous set of ligatures, with character coverage extending to Central, Eastern and Western European languages.
Classification
Described as inspired by handwriting, Kleide sits within the humanist sans tradition where calligraphic origins inform letterform construction and overall elegance.
