Alte Haas Grotesk is a free font of the day with a charming throwback design by Swiss type designer François Rappo in 2009, inspired by 19th-century grotesque typefaces.
The font stands out with soft, rounded edges, slightly condensed proportions, and a touch of quirkiness, giving it a warm and approachable vibe.
It is a revival of early sans-serifs like Akzidenz-Grotesk and Helvetica’s predecessors, featuring subtle imperfections and a handcrafted feel.
Alte Haas Grotesk is suitable for headlines and body text due to its compact yet readable design, making it a special addition to the world of typography.
