Character and Use Cases
Nunito , Nunito is a rounded sans with humanist proportions, drawn by Vernon Adams with soft terminals that take the edge off geometric construction. The result reads friendly and approachable, closer to a warm letterform than a strict circle-built face.
The family suits consumer apps, education, health, and any brand that wants to feel welcoming. It covers body text and headlines within one weight axis, and the range from regular to extra-bold gives you a full hierarchy without loading a second family. Its rounded terminals keep character at 14 to 18px, so it works in buttons and empty states as well as paragraphs.
Use 200 to 400 for supporting text and large decorative settings; 500 to 700 for labels, buttons, and headings; 800 to 900 when the moment needs to feel full and rounded.
