Humanist 521 BT

Bitstream version of Gill Sans (Gill Kayo) of Monotype, 1930, by Eric Gill.

A twentieth century sans serif that has a simplicity of form which does not reject traditional forms and proportions, and gives the face a humanist feel.

Best used for display in advertising, packaging and labels.

Cyrillic version was developed at ParaType in 1997 by Tagir Safayev.
