Aegean Font
Author's note
Aegean by George Douros of Unicode Fonts for Ancient Scripts is a free geometric sans serif with tall, slender proportions. Broad circles meet sharply angled forms, and changing stroke widths lend the lettering an elegant Art Deco cast. The spacing feels airy and measured.
Designers working on cultural and arts projects will find it suited to museum posters, exhibition programs, and refined event branding. Its clean silhouettes and classical restraint also suit magazine mastheads and feature openers, where the lettering can establish a cultured editorial voice.
