FK Grotesk is a universal yet distinctive type family. Completely redrawn in 2019, it now ranges from thin to black weight and corresponding italic and mono styles. FK Grotesk was originally designed in 2014 when we were lacking a typeface we could easily modify and use within our projects. Since then it was persistently tested in various media outputs and eventually released as a first-ever FK typeface. Together with FK Roman, it is a universal tool that is usable across various media applications.
FK Grotesk supports Latin Extended-A character set (i.e. Western European, Central European and Southeastern European languages) as well as Vietnamese language and several OpenType features. For complete specs see typeface specimen.
