About Expressway Font Family


Cruise into a world of precision and familiarity with Expressway, a sans-serif typeface that channels the unmistakable spirit of Highway Gothic. This is a journey through typographic history, reimagined for modern design landscapes.

Expressway’s DNA is rooted in the FHWA Series of Standard Alphabets, the visual language that’s guided travelers across continents since the mid-20th century. It captures the essence of road sign typography: clear, authoritative, and instantly recognizable. But Expressway doesn’t just replicate—it elevates. With an impressive arsenal of 28 styles, including seven weights, two widths, and italics, Expressway offers unparalleled versatility. Whether you’re designing for expansive billboards or intricate user interfaces, this typeface family has the range to meet your needs.

Expressway’s practical prowess shines in its numerical offerings. Old-style lowercase numerals bring a touch of sophistication, while monospaced tabular numerals ensure precise alignment in financial documents and data-heavy designs. Currency symbols, mathematical operators, and fractions—all meticulously crafted and monospaced—make complex information crystal clear. But Expressway’s journey doesn’t end at the edge of the English-speaking world. Its extensive character set spans Latin-based European languages, Vietnamese, Greek, and most Cyrillic-based writing systems. From the autobahns of Germany to the expressways of Vietnam, this typeface speaks the universal language of clear communication.

Expressway isn’t just about functionality—it’s about feeling. Its warm, inviting style carries the nostalgia of road trips past while pointing confidently toward the future. It’s equally at home guiding users through a sleek tech interface or gracing the pages of an engineering manual. For designers who understand that true innovation often comes from refining the classics, Expressway is more than a typeface—it’s a destination. It’s for projects that demand the perfect balance of authority and approachability, of tradition and progress.

So, when your design needs to communicate with the clarity of a well-placed road sign and the warmth of a familiar journey, turn to Expressway. It’s not just about getting from A to B—it’s about enjoying every letter of the ride.
