Geist Sans, Geist Mono, Geist Pixel & Geist Serif

Geist is a font family created by Vercel. Geist Sans and Geist Mono were created in collaboration with Basement Studio. Geist Pixel was created in collaboration with Andrés Briganti. Geist Serif was created in collaboration with Andrés Briganti and Mark Davis.

Geist Sans is a sans-serif typeface designed for legibility and simplicity. It is a modern, geometric typeface that is based on the principles of classic Swiss typography. It is designed to be used in headlines, logos, posters, and other large display sizes.

Geist Mono is a monospaced typeface that has been crafted to be the perfect partner to Geist Sans. It is designed to be used in code editors, diagrams, terminals, and other textbased interfaces where code is represented.

Geist Pixel is a pixel typeface designed to complement the Geist font family, built on the same principles of minimalism, precision, and simplicity that define the universe. Conceived as a display font, it pays homage to the pixel font genre while expressing the brand’s future-forward, visionary spirit, and is available in five stylistic variants for a wide range of applications.

Geist Serif is a high-contrast display serif with fine, saw-toothed serifs and sharp hairlines. Its Regular and Square variants are suited to primary typography, while Triangle and Heart offer more decorative alternatives.

Installation

Download the latest release from the releases page and install the fonts on your system.

Via npm package:

npm i geist

Geist Pixel and Geist Serif have scoped entry points, so you only ship the font files you import. Import a single variant:

import { GeistPixelGrid } from "geist/font/pixel/grid";
import { GeistSerifSquare } from "geist/font/serif/square";

Or load one variable font and pick its shape through the ELSH axis:

import { GeistPixel } from "geist/font/pixel/variable";
import { GeistSerif } from "geist/font/serif/variable";

Via Google Fonts:

Geist, Geist Mono, and Geist Pixel are available on Google Fonts. On Google Fonts, Geist Pixel ships as one variable family that selects its shape through the ELSH axis. Geist Serif is not on Google Fonts yet; install it from the releases page or via npm.

Inspiration

Geist has been influenced and inspired by the following typefaces: Inter, Univers, SF Mono, SF Pro, Suisse International, ABC Diatype Mono, and ABC Diatype. We thank the creators of these typefaces for their craft.
