Monitor Pro Normal, designed by Fred Smeijers of OurType.
Monitor is a sans serif family originally designed by Fred Smeijers as a custom typeface for office use. Produced in 2000 in only two weights, normal and bold, the fonts had been manually hinted for an enhanced screen use.
The third generation of Monitor fonts released in 2013, have gone through another substantial overhaul—a crisp and fully equipped sans serif family, has been extended to nine weights and a total of three widths. The result is a highly serviceable, no-nonsense design whose details mix precision with warmth in the spirit of Gill Sans and Fresco Sans.OurType.

—Selavy Regular, designed by Nina Stössinger.

It was designed by Nina Stössinger for Paul Soulellis and his project Library of the Printed Web. We are also making the files available to the public.
—Henriette Black, designed by Michael Hochleitner of Typejockeys, freely downloadable from MyFonts.
In the 1920s the Viennese government decided to standardize the street signs across the city. A typeface was especially constructed for the purpose. It was available in a Heavy and a Bold Condensed version, to support short street names as well as longer ones. As the years went by, the typeface was adopted and redrawn by several enamel factories. These adaptations lead to variations on the design, and to the fact that there isn’t a Viennese street sign font but 16—in part severely—different versions. Henriette is not a digitization of any of those versions; rather, it is influenced by all of them. The italic versions are completely original and designed to accompany the Roman.
Playfair Display Black Italic, designed by Claus Eggers Sørensen, available from Google Fonts.
Playfair is a transitional design. From the time of enlightenment in the late 18th century, the broad nib quills were replaced by pointed steel pens. This influenced typographical letterforms to become increasingly detached from the written ones. Developments in printing technology, ink and paper making, made it possible to print letterforms of high contrast and delicate hairlines.
Playfair includes a full set of small-caps, common ligatures, and discretionary ligatures. For Polish, a set of alternate diacritical characters designed with ‹kreska›s are included.
