Funnel Sans is a variable font: the download holds the whole weight range in one file per style, and the named weights above are positions on that range.

About Funnel Sans

Funnel Sans is a sans serif family with plain, upright letterforms and low stroke contrast. In the specimen the capitals are moderately wide, the a is double-storey, the terminals of c, e and s are cut close to horizontal, and the ampersand takes an angular form with a short crossing stroke, the most individual glyph in the set. Numerals are lining and match the capitals in height. The family is a variable font supplied as two files, upright and italic, each with a weight axis from 300 to 800 whose default position is Light. Six named weights are defined, Light, Regular, Medium, SemiBold, Bold and ExtraBold, which makes 12 styles. The fonts hold 370 glyphs for the Latin and Latin Extended character sets. The font data credits NORD ID and Kristian Möller as designers and Dicotype as manufacturer, and the license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

Where Funnel Sans works

Product interfaces

Six weights between 300 and 800 give labels, body and headings distinct steps from one pair of files.

Marketing pages

ExtraBold 800 carries a headline while Light 300 or Regular sets the supporting paragraph beneath it.

Body text with emphasis

A separate italic file provides real italics for quotations and emphasis inside paragraphs.

Things to know

The range ends at Light 300 on one side and ExtraBold 800 on the other.

Latin scripts only

Funnel Sans has 370 glyphs and no Cyrillic, Greek or Vietnamese character set.
