Ergon is a contemporary humanist sans-serif that balances geometric structure with organic warmth through subtle calligraphic influences. The typeface features moderate stroke contrast and open apertures that enhance readability, while its generous x-height and well-proportioned character spacing create excellent text flow. Distinctive details include softly rounded terminals and carefully modulated letterforms that avoid the clinical feel of purely geometric sans-serifs. This thoughtful approach to humanist design makes Ergon particularly effective for extended reading while maintaining enough character to work well at display sizes.
