Alatsi is an original typeface designed by Spyros Zevelakis.
Eben Sorkin from Sorkin Type Co. art directed, kerned and added languages.
It is a semicondensed geometric sans design which feels familiar, calm, trustable and contemporary. It is a little lighthearted or casual in feeling as well. The contemporary feeling comes from the treatment of the terminals and the cheekily pointed V A W. The calmness from the modest x height.
Alatsi offers a wide range of figures which include oldstyle figures, numerators, denominators and fractions. It also offers case sensitive forms.
