Description

Work Sans is a 9 weight typeface family based loosely on early Grotesques, i.e. Stephenson Blake, Miller & Richard and Bauerschen Giesserei. The core of the fonts are optimised for on-screen medium-sized text usage (14px-48px), but still can be used in print well. The fonts at the extreme weights are designed more for display use. Overall, features are simplified and optimised for screen resolutions, for example, diacritic marks are larger than how they would be in print.
