Heltar is a modern neo-grotesque typeface born from the legacy of Helvetica and refined for the digital age. Drawing inspiration from The Designers Republic’s treatment of Helvetica and the improvements of Hass Unica, Heltar strikes a balance between homage and innovation. Its meticulously crafted letterforms boast optical precision and subtle corrections, ensuring readability and rhythm, even under close tracking. But Heltar isn’t just about the past; it's also about the future. By incorporating ink-traps for a stylised, machine-like aesthetic, Heltar speaks to industries at the cutting edge of technology, making it ideal for brands in manufacturing and tech, seeking a sleek, futuristic vibe.
