Cina GEO
Public Type · 2014
A geometric sans-serif begun in 2014 and refined over a decade into a three-subfamily system covering text, display and monospaced use cases, available as variable fonts throughout.
About
Originally drawn from idealised geometric proportions with the thin weight establishing the core rhythm and the black weight defining the limits of contrast, Cina GEO was revisited during the pandemic and sharpened through external critique. The family spans nine weights with matching italics in the text cut, alongside dedicated Display and Mono subfamilies, each available as variable fonts. Multiple OpenType feature sets, including several stylistic alternates, lining and oldstyle figures, and tabular variants, extend its utility across identity, editorial and screen contexts.
Classification
Drawn on idealized geometric proportions with low stroke contrast across the weight range, placing it squarely in the geometric sans tradition. The family includes text, display and mono subfamilies, all sharing the same underlying geometric construction.
