In essence Alverata is a contemporary typeface with roots in early Europe. Standing out against the current trend of humanist sans-serifs, Alverata is a glyphic sans-serif face inspired by the shapes of romanesque capitals in inscriptions of the eleventh and twelfth centuries, without being a close imitation of them.
Alverata performs beautifully on screen, delivering excellent legibility. Its letters are open and friendly in small sizes and lively and attractive in large sizes. They are robust, and show refinement in their detail.
