from the artist, Christian Robertson:

Roboto has a dual nature. It has a mechanical skeleton and the forms are largely geometric. At the same time, the font features friendly and open curves. While some grotesks distort their letterforms to force a rigid rhythm, Roboto doesn’t compromise, allowing letters to be settled into their natural width. This makes for a more natural reading rhythm more commonly found in humanist and serif types.





This distribution archive offers the full sans-serif family and includes the condensed versions. These can be used alongside the Roboto Slab family, as well.



Christian Robertson and the Material Design team unveiled the latest version of Roboto at Google I/O in 2014, and it the version included in this archive are the updated 2014 versions. If you have installed this font family on your computer, please download them again and re-install to stay up-to-date.
