Conto
simple, elegant and spurless!?
Cleaning is the process of removing unwanted substances, such as dirt, infectious agents, and other impurities, from an object or environment. Cleaning occurs in many different contexts, and uses many different methods. Several occupations are devoted to cleaning.

Conto is a minimalist and clear typeface in multiple weights and widths for smooth corporate typography.

The Conto superfamily is a powerful tool for complex typography: from essential text to captions, tables and advertising. The wide range of expression in its 64 styles fulfil the demands of modern publishing. Additional flexibility can be unlocked through its Variable Font version. The superfamily features four widths and subfamilies: regular Conto, the economic Conto Narrow, the even more efficient Conto Condensed and super narrow Conto Compressed.

Conto’s minimalist and simplified lowercase forms, combined with contrast that ranges from the mono-linear Light to the contrasted Bold, mark the typeface as an independent and striking design.

Where minimalism in Bauhaus could result in coarse geometry, the spurless lowercase in Conto combine the neutral shapes of constructed type with a humanistic touch. Open counters and a generous x-height ensure that its simplified, friendly feel is matched by a smooth performance, whether it is on screen in banking apps, or in headlines of printed flyers.

Furthermore, with its remarkable number of discretionary ligatures, Conto is not only useful for typesetting text and headlines, but also for logotypes and lettering. From elegant Thin to strong Black, Conto contains more than 878 glyphs and broad Latin language and advanced typographical support. Small caps and all the figures and fractions you need for serious typography are matched in each weight with case and small-cap sensitive punctuation.

Conto is published in memory of Peter Bruhn. During Nils’ studies at The Hague, Peter gave feedback and corrections and decided to release Conto via his Fountain Foundry before he passed too soon. Thank you for your help, Peter!
