About

About Savate

Collectif We Ch

Sans Serif

Open Source

Savate typeface brings rounded softness to contemporary sans-serif construction, with a complete family including genuine italics for expressive hierarchy. Collectif We Ch's design delivers friendly, approachable forms suited to lifestyle brands, educational content, and consumer products. The rounded terminals create visual warmth without the juvenile associations some rounded fonts carry. Savate's creative yet professional aesthetic appeals to companies balancing approachability with credibility. The complete weight range supports comprehensive typographic systems across touchpoints. Pair with a sharp, contrasting serif like Publico for editorial layouts requiring textural variety.

Savate was crafted by Collectif We Ch. The typeface brings careful attention to typographic detail, visible in its letterform construction and optical balance.

As a Sans Serif typeface in the Vox-ATypI Lineal classification, Savate features no serif extensions on stroke terminals and stroke contrast ranging from monolinear to subtly modulated. These optical characteristics make it well-suited for user interface text and navigation elements.

Savate is available in a single weight, offering focused typographic consistency for both digital and print applications, with 4 curated font pairings available. Standard Latin character coverage serves the majority of Western typographic workflows.
