Arvor specimen from Octotypo

A geometric sans-serif rooted in uncial manuscript traditions, with an extensive set of OpenType ligatures tailored specifically for Celtic and Breton typography.

About

Arvor operates as a clean, legible modern sans across its seven weights and matching italics, with subtle calligraphic tension inherited from classic uncial scripts. Stylistic alternates for both uppercase and lowercase letters allow designers to shift the tone toward an expressive, historically inflected display register. The family's standout feature is its native support for Celtic and Breton language ligatures, including combinations such as c'h, gw, kñ and zh, alongside comprehensive European diacritic coverage.

Classification

A geometric sans-serif with calligraphic underpinnings drawn from uncial manuscript traditions. The architecture is clean and rectilinear, but stylistic alternates introduce rounded, uncial-inspired forms that reveal its Celtic heritage.
