Typeface Design For Cofo’s Font Library
CoFo developed CoFo Robert Sans, a friendly grotesque that expands the Robert type family while preserving its 19th-century British-inspired slab-serif DNA. Designed by Liza Rasskazova, the typeface was created to fill a gap in the CoFo library for a warmer, more versatile sans serif suitable for book design, identity systems, and digital interfaces. The project introduced stylistic alternates, small caps, multiple figure styles, and broad typographic functionality, while improving readability at small sizes through adjusted proportions and increased x-height. CoFo also refined distinctive glyphs such as a, R, Я, g, and G to balance heritage with usability.
