Typeface Design for Fontfabric

Solo-designed geometric sans with eight styles and Cyrillic support

Code Pro is a geometric sans-serif typeface designed and produced entirely by Svetoslav Simov at Fontfabric, released in May 2011. It draws from 20th-century geometric sans-serif precedents, aiming for simplified, organic forms suited to a broad range of media. The family ships in eight styles across four weights, each available in standard and LC (lowercase) variants, with extended Latin and Cyrillic coverage and advanced OpenType features.

Insights

Svetoslav Simov handled all creative and production roles—type direction, design, and font production—making Code Pro a single-author project.
The family offers paired style variants (standard and LC) at each weight, giving four weights but eight discrete font files.
OpenType features include oldstyle figures, discretionary alternates, ligatures, fractions, subscript, and superscript alongside localization support.
Cyrillic support alongside extended Latin gives the family multilingual scope beyond Latin-only geometric sans releases.
