Makena is a sans-serif family made for reading on screens and on paper, with a little more personality than the usual interface type.
Makena is a modified version of Inter, the open-source typeface by Rasmus Andersson and the Inter Project Authors. Its outlines, spacing and kerning are Inter's careful work.
A set of friendlier letterforms is built in as the default: a single-story a, an l with a tail, compact f and t, open 4, 6 and 9, and round quotes and commas.
Nine weights from Thin to Black, each with an italic, plus variable fonts that cover every weight and optical size in between.
Tabular numbers, case-sensitive punctuation, fractions and disambiguation alternates all come along, so tables, forms and labels stay clear.
