neue Vektor B
A utilitarian geometric sans with open counters and vertical stroke endings, designed as the unobtrusive sibling of neue Vektor A within a three-variant system sharing identical metrics and character sets.
About
neue Vektor B sits within the neue Vektor family alongside variants A and CNC, all sharing the same character set, 14 styles and OpenType features, but each taking a stylistically distinct approach. This variant prioritises clarity through open counters, mechanical joints and vertical stress, making it particularly suited to screen environments and wayfinding applications. Over 1,000 glyphs per style cover 90+ Latin-based languages, with extensive OpenType alternates including multiple figure sets, arrow enclosures and glyph-level alternates for key characters.
Classification
A utilitarian geometric sans-serif with open counters, vertical stroke endings and mechanical joints. Vertical stress and flat horizontal curvature position it firmly in the geometric/rational sans tradition, optimised for screen and wayfinding contexts.
