Avara: A Remarkable Libre Transitional Serif Curveless Type Family

Avara is a remarkable libre transitional serif curveless type family with a unique design choice that enables collaboration. Its nodes are carefully placed on a rough square grid, resulting in bold, constrained shapes that make it stand out from other typefaces. The design of Avara is a testament to the collaborative effort of its creators. Raphaël Bastide was responsible for the Bold style, and Wei Huang and Lucas Le Bihan continued the work. Lucas Le Bihan also designed the Bold Italic and Black styles, while Walid Bouchouchi and Jérémy Landes started the Black style before Lucas Le Bihan completed it. The end result is a typeface that is both unique and highly functional, making it an excellent choice for any design project. Avara's designers not only created a visually appealing typeface, but also one that is highly effective for any project. Its bold, constrained shapes make it a great choice for titles, logos, and other large type applications, while its structure makes it extremely readable and legible for body text. With its versatile and collaborative design, Avara is an excellent choice for any type of project.
