Some typefaces are distinguished by a sense of newness and surprise — the unexpected influence, the unfamiliar combination of disparate historical models. Others surprise you with their very regularity — their sense of rightness, of always having been there. They are so of the current moment that they seem classic and timeless.

Welcome to MyFonts, the #1 place to download great @font-face webfonts and desktop fonts: classics (Baskerville, Futura, Garamond) alongside hot new fonts (Brice, Moneta,Novera). This answer is legit – even if you don't agree it's beautiful, the market decides. There's value in excellent design. 1 point 1 year ago. The reasons for the price have already been speculated on this thread but I just had to say, Lineto.com is the worst font website I've ever seen.

Laurenz Brunner’s designs for Lineto fall into this second category. His debut release, Akkurat (2004) — a contemporary take on the Swiss sans serif — was one of Lineto’s first serious text families and perhaps its largest success to date.

With LL Circular, his second release for Lineto, Brunner has done it again — this time reworking the geometric sans, drawing from Futura, Neuzeit Grotesk, and other 20th-century models to create something unmistakably current.

Circular doesn’t draw attention to itself. From its earliest appearances in The Most Beautiful Swiss Books series of 2007–09 (designed by Brunner himself while the typeface was under development), to its recent uses in Conditional Design: Workbook, Unit Edition’s FHK Henrion monograph, and the pages of the New York Times Magazine, Circular is serious, timeless, and neutral.

It has a pleasing, even color, substantial in even its lightest weight. A handful of alternate glyphs (includ­ing an ‘r’ constructed of only a line and a dot — a nod to Renner’s experimental letterforms) and a set of char­ming roman numerals allow for more atyp­ical settings. But even without these alter­nates, Circular is geo­metric without being cold. It is anon­ymous in the best way possible.

But oh, the lowercase ‘t’! I adore the lowercase ‘t’. The intersection of stem and crossbar is perfectly rounded, suggesting the slightest hint of Clarendon or Century. And it is this subtle softness that gives the typeface away. It is Circular’s defining character, and my favorite glyph of 2013.
