## About Fauna One

Fauna One is a serif typeface drawn with nearly even stroke thickness. The official notes describe low-contrast strokes and soft terminals that resolve into traditional serifs, on a structure that is gentle and a little condensed. The specimen bears this out: the Regular is light on the page, serifs are short flat feet with softened corners, and the round letters are slightly narrow ovals. The a and g are two-storey and one-storey forms respectively, and the ampersand is an open, hand-drawn shape. Eduardo Tunni designed the face; the name table gives his full name as Eduardo Rodriguez Tunni. An update in January 2023 enlarged the glyph set, added fractions and made small aesthetic changes, and the file now holds 442 glyphs for Latin and Latin Extended. Fauna One has one style, is not variable, and reserves the font name Fauna.

## Where it works

- **Paragraphs on screen**: Low contrast means there are no hairlines to break up at small sizes, and the notes say it reads clearly in paragraphs.
- **Light, airy headlines**: The thin even strokes give a large title a quiet look that heavier serifs do not.
- **Recipes and measurements**: Fractions were added in the 2023 update, useful for quantities in recipes and specifications.
- **Narrow columns**: Slightly condensed letters fit more characters into a sidebar or a mobile column.

## Things to know

- **One style**: Fauna One has Regular 400 only, with no italic or bold.
- **Updated in January 2023**: The official notes record a larger glyph set, fractions and minor aesthetic changes in that update.
