Geometric, Stylish, and Not Quite a Stencil Face: Glance Sans

Geometric, stylish, and undeniably unique, Glance Sans is the urban alter ego of Glance Slab—a robust sans-serif with its own distinct character. Built on the design principle of nonjoining parts, Glance Sans inherits the dynamic gaps that made Glance Slab successful. These gaps, created by strokes not connecting to their stems, give a sense of balance and movement. However, Glance Sans presents a calmer aesthetic due to the absence of detached serifs. While Glance Slab thrives in large, bustling stadiums and massive sports events, Glance Sans finds its home in streetball courts, well-used skate parks, and underground clubs. It seamlessly adapts to urban work environments, from finance to high-tech sectors. Whenever a more subdued yet elegant appearance is needed, Glance Sans steps in effortlessly.

Versatility is crucial in an urban setting, and Glance Sans delivers with seven weights and a complete set of italics. These italics are not mere sloped versions of the regular forms but are individually crafted, subtly referencing classic italic construction for enhanced emphasis. Among the over 600 glyphs in Glance Sans, you'll find six sets of figures, circled numbers, circled arrows, and various currency symbols in two stylistic versions. This makes Glance Sans ideal for industrial and high-tech branding, wayfinding systems in contemporary or modernist architecture, corporate identities in arts, crafts, medicine, culture, and education, as well as sports-themed designs.

Both members of the Glance superfamily are highly combinable yet stand strong on their own. You might choose Glance Sans for text and use Glance Slab for headlines, or set large, clean, display-sized lines in Glance Sans and enhance them with a touch of sportive Glance Slab. The choice is yours to harness the best of both worlds.
