About
Part of the Akuto family alongside the display-oriented Akuto Display, this companion sans balances geometric structure with humanist warmth. Eight weights run from Extralight to Black, each with a corresponding italic, and the family is available as individual weights or a variable font. Beyond the standard character set, it includes ligatures in both cases, alternates, arrows and a set of chess-themed symbols.
Classification
The foundry describes this as a geometric-humanist typeface, balancing geometric structure with humanist warmth and grotesque character. It is designed primarily for subheadings and text use across eight weights.
