A clear, restrained sans-serif in 12 styles, drawing on the humanist traditions of Frutiger and Benton, designed to pair with the serif sibling Phechque.
About
Tibor Szikora's Harkaly Sans prioritises legibility and typographic discretion over visual character, following a lineage that runs from Morris Fuller Benton's grotesques to Adrian Frutiger's humanist sans work. At 12 styles and 320 glyphs, the family is modestly sized but purposefully matched in proportions and x-height to the companion serif Phechque, making cross-family pairing straightforward.
Classification
Inspired by Adrian Frutiger and Morris Fuller Benton, the typeface sits between humanist and neo-grotesque traditions, aiming for clarity and neutrality over expressive personality.
