Motiva Sans
Plau · Rodrigo Saiani
The official typeface of Valve's Steam OS, designed by Rodrigo Saiani across seven weights with matching italics for a platform serving over 125 million users.
About
Built for high legibility across screen and print, it spans seven weights from Thin to Black with corresponding italics, all available as variable fonts. The italics are notably more cursive than typical sans-serif designs, providing strong contrast against the roman cuts. OpenType features include small caps, tabular and oldstyle figures, fractions, scientific inferiors and superiors, and alternate forms for the italic f and k.
Classification
A functional sans-serif designed for UI and digital environments, with cursive italics that suggest humanist influence; broad weight range and OpenType feature set place it firmly in the humanist sans tradition.
