Area

Area Font Family was designed by Matthieu Salvaggio and published by Blaze Type. Area contains 175 styles and family package options. Area is a variable geometric font family of 176 fonts that takes inspiration from architecture. Revolving around two width: Normal and Extended, matching italics. Area comes in three axis and six total styles: Compressed, Normal, Extended and Inktrap versions for each and matching italics. Taking full advantage of the variable technology in order to bring a powerful font system. Like any piece of architecture, the design process of Area started with a stable modular geometrical structure. Once the foundations are laid, its envelope slowly unfolds into a more quiet neogrotesque robe, offering a solid base for any reading experience thanks to its smooth grey. Far from being ornamental, Area inktraps have been planned from A to Z to offer the assurance that even in situations that are trickier and require the use of smaller text, everything will remain steady as steel.
