Universal Sans: design, license and download your own sans serif typeface

Universal Sans is an award-winning customisable typeface platform. In 2020 the project was awared the ultimate creative accolade – a rare D&AD Black Pencil – reserved for work that is ground-breaking in its field and fundamentally changes the rules of a category.

Custom type has typically involved high costs and long lead times, putting it out of reach for most projects. Universal Sans seeks to change this by making custom type more accessible to a wider audience. The platform gives designers more insight and control of the type design process and uses automation to make the production of custom type instantaneous and cost-effective.

The typeface platform features six variable axes with an extensive range of stylistic alternates to allow for an infinite number of unique outcomes. While there are limitless possiblities, the typeface system adheres to fundamental typographic principles to ensure the end product is cohesive and functional. Users can name their typeface, download a trial version, or licence their typeface for commercial use.

Universal Sans seeks to connect the related yet diverse landscape of sans serif styles, building on pioneering typefaces with similar intent from the 20th century, while innovating for the 21st century with unique design features enabled by technology.

Universal Sans was designed by Briton Smith for Family Type. Family Type is a type foundry previously based in London, UK but now based in Sydney, Australia. We design and develop retail and custom typefaces along with other type related projects. Our focus on the intersection of type and technology. Visit familytype.co. This site was developed in collaboration with twomuch.studio
