ITC Stone Sans specimen from ParaType

Sumner Stone's 1988 humanist sans, part of the ITC Stone super-family alongside Serif and Informal variants, with a Cyrillic extension by Vladimir Yefimov released in 2011.

About

ITC Stone Sans shares cap height, x-height and stem weights with its Serif and Informal siblings, allowing all three to mix freely while remaining individually coherent. The design draws on the tradition of Gill Sans, Kabel and Syntax, with moderate stroke contrast and terminals clipped at right angles. The Cyrillic version, developed by Vladimir Yefimov and published by ParaType in 2011, extends the family's reach into Russian and related scripts.

Classification

Humanist sans-serif with moderate stroke contrast, large x-height and slightly condensed proportions. Terminals clipped at right angles to the stroke, recalling Syntax, and the design sits within the tradition of Gill Sans and Kabel.
