Jouter Sans
Inspired by Gothic sans serif faces from 19th-century, Jouter Sans takes its historical references and adapts them for contemporary use. Jouter Sans never hides its historical influences; instead, it reinterprets a functional sans serif font in a modern setting adapted for a contemporary designer. The font family features 18 styles plus a variable font, combining sharp contrast and tight spacing with a set of stylistic alternates. While rooted in historical forms, it’s designed to feel at home in modern layouts.

Jouter Sans is a vintage sans serif typeface, released in 18 styles (9 uprights and 9 italics). Jouter Sans is inspired by early Gothic fonts released by Farmer Type. This vintage type family builds on this rich typographic heritage and reinterprets the genre, balancing historical font aesthetics with a modern approach to design, informed by the best digital type practices.
Jouter Sans embraces bold stylistic choices, featuring several idiosyncratic characters true to their historical forms. However, with multiple stylistic sets, designers can easily opt for more modern forms. Its most prominent features—sharp contrast within letterforms and tight spacing—make it perfect for various projects, from branding to editorial design. Jouter Sans is available for download as a free trial font for testing and prototyping.
The Jouter Sans family includes 18 styles, from Thin to Black, with matching italics and a variable font. With over 700 characters per font, it supports over 200 Latin languages and offers extensive OpenType features, including stylistic sets, fractions, case-sensitive punctuation, tabular figures, and more. Carefully mastered to meet modern technical criteria, it works seamlessly at smaller sizes in large bodies of text or can be used effectively as a headline font.
