Faber Serif & Faber Sans
Two coordinated fonts,
one harmonious font family
for all kinds of applications
Faber Sans is a sans serif in the style of the classic modern typefaces of the early 20th century — Paul Renner’s Futura and Gill Sans were the inspiration.
The result is a font with pleasantly rhythmic proportions that is extremely pleasant to read, especially in large amounts of text, but it is also easy to read under the typographically adverse conditions of the screen.
Faber Serif is the Roman typeface
which was born out of the sans serif design
Faber Sans. The proportions are nearly
identical to those of Faber Sans.
In comparison, Faber Serif has heavy
— although very short — serifs.
The character of contrasting strokes is
not very pronounced; therefore, this font
is closely related to the first Roman
typefaces from the 15th century.
