A humanist sans-serif in five weights with matching italics, designed by Henrique Beier and released in 2019, featuring an alternate glyph set that shifts the typeface's character with a small number of different letterforms.

About

Dona balances legibility at text sizes with expressive detail that reads clearly on headlines, packaging and identity work. The family ships in 20 fonts across five weights, with matching italics and an Alt subfamily, plus variable font support. It received a Tipos Latinos 9 award and was listed among Fontspring's best fonts of 2019 before being superseded by a redesigned version, Suspire.

Classification

A humanist sans-serif with friendly, expressive details that remain legible at text sizes whilst coming alive at display sizes. The alternate glyph set (Dona Alt) shifts the tone with a handful of different letterforms, suggesting a design that prioritises character over neutrality.
