Gamuth Sans is a sans-serif companion to Gamuth. It is made to be economical and legible in small sizes. It was designed specifically for UI and data presentation. Gamuth Sans is multiplexed, meaning that all the weights have the same metrics. This allow for more predictable layout in interfaces or tables.

Buvard is an old-style serif inspired by Renaissance typefaces.

It features an unconventional, bottom-heavy, weight distribution. It is inspired by a common characteristic found in Renaissance-era prints: imperfection in the printing process resulting in certain parts of letters getting heavier than other.

Despite this added weight giving it a hint of goofiness, Buvard does not renounce its original dignity and retains some of that classical elegance.

Buvard is work in progress. An italic is in the work, and a full range of weights should follow.
