About the Font
Alata Sans Serif font is a unique typeface that has a striking geometric style. The designer, Spyros Zevelakis, drew inspiration from early twentieth-century advertisement writing and epigraphic Greek monoline letters, which has led to its distinctive style. Eben Sorkin was responsible for modifying and expanding the font’s language support.
One of the standout features of Alata Sans Serif font is its versatility. It can be used for both personal and commercial purposes, making it an excellent option for designers who want to elevate their work. The font’s aesthetic makes it a great choice for a range of projects, from logos and titles to name cards, magazines, web layouts, invitations, headers, and branding.
In terms of design, the font is a fusion of different influences, with capital letters influenced by British lettering, while lowercase letters have a more “continental” or European feel. Alata Sans Serif also features a large selection of figures, including old-style figures, tiny numbers, superiors, and fractions. Case-sensitive forms are also included, which further expands the font’s design possibilities.
Alata Sans Serif font has a single regular style, which contains 853 glyphs with 1024 units per em. This font’s old-style figures with little numbers to represent superiors and fractions give it a majestic, antique, and sometimes bizarre feel. Despite having only one style, Alata Sans Serif font is a great option for designers looking for a versatile and unique typeface to use in their projects.
