Grep

Grep communicates clearly, with a subtle sparkle. The design's circuitous path began when a major tech company asked Ben Kiel for a screen-oriented sans. Through simplification of the letterforms, the underlying principles of legibility and balance took more prominent focus. Beyond the bright and utilitarian Grep Regular, the family's heavier weights feature dramatic stroke modulation, taking inspiration from Roger Excoffon's Antique Olive.
