JAF Globus was designed to work well at small sizes on screen, drawing on ideas from Univers and our own JAF Bernini Sans. We see it as a modernist typeface with a geometric feel, but it isn’t built on a strict geometric system. To keep some of the character of geometric types, we shaped the round letters to feel circular through careful stroke transitions and generous white space, rather than rigid geometry. We adjusted some letter widths – such as a more generous t and f – so longer texts don’t feel cramped. While its geometric style creates a strong presence in display use, it has a comfortable rhythm in body text.
