About
Facility devises its own rules and has a personality that flirts with the extravagance of the 1960s while being undeniably grounded in Modernism. As its name suggests, it carries a sense of ease and naturally claims its own space. Designed to serve a wide range of typographic purposes, this new typeface balances warmth with competence, projecting confidence without ever tipping into austerity.
Facility shows that opposites can not only co-exist, but that opposites gain strength from one another. Its distinctive curves—most evident in key characters, such as “a” and “s”— together with its slightly flared terminals, evoke the vibrant shapes of Verner Panton. At the same time, Facility reveals a rational system and structure rooted in mid-century type design, ensuring efficiency and fluidity. Stroke contrasts become more pronounced in heavier weights, which makes them ideal for impactful titling, while the lighter weights retain an understated elegance.
Drawn by Zürich-based Danish designer Malte Bentzen, Facility is the last iteration of a long process, which was led by ongoing commitments to research, curiosity and refinement. With nine weights and italics, this font family facilitates both clarity and expression. It is versatile enough to adapt and confident enough to stand out yet never imposing.
