Gelder Sans is a modern sans-serif typeface inspired by the iconic Frutiger. Named in honour of my grandparents, who carry the surname Gelder and may have descended from the Netherlands, this typeface pays homage to family heritage while nodding to the rich tradition of Dutch type design. Gelder Sans fits differently than the grotesque or humanist style but instead takes the best elements from both, discarding what isn't needed. Gelder Sans ensures high readability and a friendly appearance with its organic shapes, open apertures, and uniform stroke widths. It is perfect for various applications, from digital interfaces to printed materials.

The font includes over 1000 characters, eight weights, and italics for versatile typography. It boasts ten number variations, alternate characters (I, M, Q, R, a, e, g, l, y), unique glyphs like arrows, ligatures, and small caps. It also has extensive language support encompassing Western, South, and Central Europe and Vietnamese.
