Alphazet SemiBold by Type Forward is a free sans serif font shaped by broad, near-monoline forms and large circular bowls that keep the lettering compact and steady. The design pairs straight verticals with generous rounded sections, giving it a firm, pared-back rhythm instead of a neutral office tone.
That balance makes sense on branding, app headers, packaging, posters, and website hero text, where the rounded mass can anchor short words without feeling cold. It also lends itself to wayfinding and social graphics that need a direct sans serif presence, especially when a plainer geometric option would feel too anonymous.

Developed by Type Forward and Luboslav Boyanov, Alphazet is based on geometric principles and constructed from simple geometric forms. It has a high x-height, stable proportions, short ascenders and descenders, and consistent weight distribution; the design omits decorative details.
The family includes 9 weights (Thin to Black), each with matching oblique italics, and all weights are available as a variable font.
Alphazet provides broad language support, OpenType features, and well-balanced spacing and kerning. It is supplied in OTF, TTF, web formats, and as a single variable font file.
