displaydisplay sansitalic
Oddval specimen from Type Forward

A display sans-serif with deliberate ink traps and eccentric letterform details, available in nine weights with matching italics and a variable font.

About

Oddval pairs conventional sans-serif structure with conspicuous ink traps and unconventional details that give it a distinct character at display sizes. The family spans nine weights from Hairline to Black, each with an italic, plus a variable font covering the full range. Cyrillic support is included alongside Latin, with multiple stylistic sets offering oval Cyrillic alternates and other variant letterforms.

Classification

A display sans-serif defined by prominent ink traps and idiosyncratic detailing, placing it firmly in the display category rather than a workhorse grotesque or geometric sans. Its deliberate oddities and stylistic sets suggest a typeface designed for large-scale use rather than continuous text.
