CC Accidenz Grotesk Font

CC Accidenz Grotesk from Creative Commons is a large sans serif font available for free download, derived from Akzidenz Grotesk by Archetypo.xyz team Joaquin Contreras & Miguel Hernandez Montoya for Creative Commons use. The font was designed under these basic premises:

– To establish a quality framework for a typeface based on the original design of Akzidenz Grotesk
– To improve the original canonic design that precedes Helvetica and optimize it for better Webfont visualizing
– To design a versatile text weight to be used in CC’s identity and logo, as well as in headlines, presentations, and other text applications
– The end result was CC Accidenz Grotesk: a contemporary, versatile, and neutral version of Akzidenz Grotesk.
