Averta is a geometric sans serif font family which merges early European grotesques and American gothic design features harmoniously. Type designer Kostas Bartokas created Averta by drawing the name from the Greek word ‘αβέρτα’, which translates to speak openly with directness and no moderation. The design of Averta stands true to its namesake by using geometric curves along with open apertures and low-contrast strokes, which create a modernist yet inviting personality that’s neutral in nature.
Averta shows exceptional performance quality in all platforms because its creation focused on adaptability. Text readability appears best at Light through Bold since each weight uses optimized spacing but headline effectiveness works through tighter spacing in strong weights. Set in true italics the family creates dynamic visual potential which enables branding applications and editorial design usage and signage projection and other design applications.
Averta delivers its users access to a comprehensive collection of OpenType characteristics which enable diverse typographic adjustments:
- Symbols and a slashed zero
- Localized forms (Bulgarian, Serbian, Macedonian, Dutch, Romanian/Moldovan, and more)
- Discretionary ligatures
- Superiors and inferiors
- Fractions, numerators, and denominators
- Old-style, proportional, and tabular numerals
- Greek small caps without tonos
- Small caps
- Case-sensitive forms
- Contextual alternates
- Stylistic alternates
