Cloister is a sans serif that pays homage to a plethora of typefaces. Its mostly inspired by the closed counters of Genzsch and Heyse's Lapidar, and its underlying structure borrows from popular neo-grotesks, and fonts designed for legibility on the screen.

The name Cloister refers to the typefaces closed off anatomy, and it also refers to its origins. It was created during the Corona Virus Lockdown.

Every typeface has a voice. Some whisper, some shout — and the best ones say exactly what you mean before a single word is read.

Pick a font that fits your idea, set it with care, and let the letters do the talking. From bold headlines to the smallest caption, good type stays clear at every size — clean curves, even spacing, and characters that feel at home together.

A well-made font carries your message across posters, screens, packaging and print without ever getting in the way. That is the quiet craft of typography: structure you feel, but rarely notice. 0123456789 — the details matter.
