Typeface Design for Print and Web

Skeleton first, stencil second — a methodical derivation process

Jigsaw is a geometric sans-serif family by Johanna Biľak, released by Typotheque in 2002. Its nearly monolinear stroke and primary skeletal letterforms served as the foundation from which stencil versions were derived, later expanded into four weights. The family suits both print and large-scale architectural applications, where the letter g is particularly distinctive at larger sizes. Each weight ships with six numeral styles, including proportional lining, old-style, tabular, and superior/inferior figures.
