Type Design Ika™ by Fontwerk™
When content takes the lead, design must follow with purpose. Ika™ embodies clarity, simplicity, and transparency — optimised for readability, shaped by humanist sans-serif principles, and aligned with DIN 1450. Awarded by the Art Directors Club New York, it lets the message speak for itself.
Ika™ seamlessly blends humanist, constructed, and geometric influences. Its open, balanced forms adhere to DIN 1450 readability standards, creating a distinctive presence within Fontwerk’s portfolio. It is the ideal choice for campaigns where other typefaces may feel too soft or conventional.
A timeless type family, Ika™ meets a broad range of design demands. With nine weights from Thin to Ultra—each with matching italics—it supports Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic scripts, making it an exceptional asset for global branding. Equipped with an extensive character set, four numeral styles, and all essential OpenType features, it provides the versatility required for sophisticated typographic applications.
Ika™ is the perfect tool for a variety of design applications, from logos and branding to corporate identities, posters, and billboards. Its adaptability extends to signage and text-heavy environments, where its distinct qualities shine—especially in smaller sizes.
