Breuer Sans is a modular typeface manifesting the boldness of Brutalist architecture. Inspired by a concrete-cast waterfront sign found in Seattle and named after the great architect Marcel Breuer. Breuer Sans is a three-weight typeface carefully crafted to highlight the large, monolithic, and rigid geometric style that emerged in the 1950s while maintaining the many unique features of the original concrete-cast sign.
