The Story of Fasad

Jesper Wachtmeister

Display

Open Source

Fasad font is a creative display typeface featuring unique letterforms. Distinctive and architectural, this design delivers building-inspired aesthetics for architecture firms, real estate brands, and construction communications. The creative construction suggests facade elements while unique proportions add memorable personality. Designers working on architectural branding, property development, and urban design will appreciate the thematic appropriateness. Pair with clean body text.

Fasad was created by Jesper Wachtmeister. The typeface shows dedication to typographic detail, visible in its letterform construction and optical balance.

As a Display typeface in the Vox-ATypI Graphic classification, Fasad features tight spacing optimized for large point sizes and exaggerated contrast, weight, or decorative features. These optical characteristics make it well-suited for brand logotypes and wordmarks.

Fasad is available in a single weight, offering focused typographic consistency across digital and print workflows, with 5 curated font pairings available. Standard Latin character coverage serves the majority of Western typographic workflows.
