About

Wix Madefor is a compact font family of three weights for display setting, and four text weights for use in user interfaces. The text fonts also have matching italics, with shapes rooted in cursive forms, despite the typeface’s geometric structure, allowing Wix to have different expressions, from functional to more playful.

The typeface was designed to carry subtle features with an engaging and clean appearance.

The display style was designed with strong geometric features – round characters are nearly circular, and the curvatures of f, j, and t are angular; stroke endings in letters such as c and s have a slight flaring; and the letter spacing is set tight for use at larger sizes.

Latin (uprights and italics), Cyrillic (uprights) and Vietnamese (uprights) scripts are supported.
