“Apta is a sans-serif typeface that explores the
intersection of humanist and geometric designs. It takes
inspiration from the mono-linear humanist approach of
Johnston (Edward Johnston, 1913) and the
geometric rigour of Futura (Paul Renner, 1927). […]
Apta is structured with Roman proportions with a
mono-linear build and is distinguished by consistent vertically cut
terminals — a humanist trait derived from straight joins of
shoulder to stem.” [Colophon]
First released in 2022 with Colophon, in six weights plus italics, and Stylistic
Sets with Geometric and Humanist alternates. Moved to Weekend
