Albert Sans is a modern geometric sans serif family. It is inspired by the type-characteristics made by scandinavian architects and designers in the beginning of the 20th century. Architects and designers like Knud V. Engelhardt (1882-1931), Gunnar Biilmann Petersen (1897-1968) and Thorvald Bindesbøll (1846-1908) who contributed to the foundation of scandinavian typedesign.
Designed by the Danish type designer Andreas Rasmussen, initially built on Latin portion of Poppins made by Jonny Pinhorn.
The Albert Sans family includes ten weights from Thin to Black and supports the Latin Extended glyph set and other western european languages.
