Aspira: the legible geometric typeface.
Aspira is a multi-purpose typeface. It is suitable for both text and display use — for graphic design, corporate identity design, magazines, newspapers, books, reports, advertising, signage, etc.
Aspira is a versatile typeface. It offers 112 styles, 8 weights, and 7 widths. It offers 56 upright fonts and 56 italic fonts. It offers lining and oldstyle figures (proportional and tabular). It offers small caps, ligatures, arbitrary fractions, and extensive language support. Aspira is a toolkit for any typographic challenge.
Aspira is a geometric typeface. It offers a fresh geometric personality which is pleasant and not too conspicuous.
Aspira is a multi-width typeface. It offers 7 widths — much more than what is currently usual.
Aspira is a legible typeface. Many of its details, like its open apertures and subtle variations in stroke width, are designed to enhance its legibility.
Aspira introduces an innovative width indication system: XXXNar, XXNar, XNar, Nar, [Normal Width], Wide, XWide.
