Sans serif typefaces are characterised by the omission of the small decorative feet or terminal strokes traditionally attached to the main stems of letters, drawing its name directly from the French term for without. Generally, these minimalist designs display a more uniform line weight throughout their structure and feature taller lowercase body heights compared to their serifed counterparts.
This broad stylistic group contains a wide variety of sub-genres categorized by design era and structural philosophy. It is important to clarify that while certain round characters naturally lack terminal hooks regardless of the font style, this entire design family is defined specifically by removing those decorative extensions from letterforms that would traditionally require them, such as the vertical stems of lowercase characters. Font families from our library that embody this clean aesthetic include Nexa Pro, Mont, Matt, Muller Next, and Postamp Grotesk.
