FAU Sans combines sophistication and intellectual strength by merging the classic modernity of a geometric typeface with the legibility of a signal font. It embodies a character that perfectly represents an educational and research institution.
As a bespoke typeface, FAU Sans possesses design attributes that make it exceptionally versatile for both print and web. It benefits from a distinct personality, excelling in long-form text and billboard-sized headlines.
The light weights exhibit subtle elegance, while the bold weights are commanding. All five weights feature a large character set, supporting most Central and several Eastern European languages, including Greek for mathematical formulas.
