Quarion is a clean, neo-humanist sans with a contemporary geometric approach. Its design started as an exploration of geometric fonts from the early 20th century, like Futura, Neuzeit Grotesk or Recta which allows the typeface to generate an inviting but sophisticated feel on the page.

Characteristics
Quarion features contemporary humanistic proportions, nearly round shapes in uppercase O, C and G, and a medium stroke contrast. The conventional double-storey a allows for great legibility in small sizes, while the eccentric uppercase Q provides a distinctive layer.
Alternatives
The family comes with many alternative glyphs, changing the appearance of single words or paragraphs dramatically. All alternative characters are available with their diacritic counterparts.
Opentype Features
Completed with a wide range of opentype features like stylistics sets, case sensitive shapes, ligatures, various number sets, arrows and slashed zeros, Quarion is equipped for all requirements on modern typography.
Languages
The family supports all european and western languages plus Cyrillic, and comes with 650+ glyphs per font.
Weights
Ranging from Hairline to Heavy, Quarion is available in 10 weights plus matching italics. While its light weights are combining an elegant and sophisticated appearance, the heavier weights are perfect for underlining strong statements. In contrast to the extremes, the middle weights come with looser spacing to support legibility in small font sizes.
