AntonRoboto

Anton's narrow industrial caps pair with Roboto's neutral humanist sans. Sharp posters, tight layouts, packaging where space matters. Reads as confident and contemporary.

Manufacturing report.From the floor

Built to last. Designed to be seen.

The factory has been running since 1962. The product has been redesigned exactly twice, and both times the redesign was about manufacturing, not appearance. The pairing belongs to that lineage: built for utility, refined to be quiet about it.

By the production team

Made.

Set in Anton, with body in Roboto.

Every unit ships with a serial number, a manufacture date, and a documented part list. Every revision is tracked. Every component meets a specification before it enters the build. The pairing handles the documentation that ships in the box.

“Industrial design that works disappears into the object. So does the typography that documents it.”
From the spec sheet
Workshop note

What lasts and what doesn't

Steel lasts. Wood ages well. Plastic does not. Electronics fail before any of the above. We design for the lifetime of the slowest-failing component, which is almost always the steel frame.

Numerals matter. Anton’s figures sit cleanly alongside Roboto in tabular contexts and reading text both. You can use them in dashboards, annual reports, and pricing tables without retreating to a separate face.
