Open Sans Soft
Matteson Typographics · Steve Matteson
A rounded companion to Open Sans by Steve Matteson, applying softened corners to the original's letterforms to produce a warmer, more approachable tone across two widths and five weights.
About
Open Sans Soft retains the proven proportions and spacing of Open Sans while introducing organic curvature at letter corners, a treatment associated with faces such as Calibri and DIN Next. The family spans Light through ExtraBold in both standard and condensed widths, each with matching italics. Intended for correspondence, headlines, packaging and interface design, it functions as a direct stylistic companion to Open Sans.
Classification
A humanist sans-serif closely derived from Open Sans, distinguished by rounded corners on letterforms that soften the overall appearance. The rounded terminals place it within a friendly, approachable subset of humanist sans design.
