Arimo
Arimo is a sans-serif family with a clear, adaptable appearance for everyday text and interface work. Its regular and italic styles cover standard reading needs, while several heavier weights make it possible to create hierarchy without changing families. The broad supplied subset list also supports projects that need varied writing systems.
Best suited for: Use Arimo for website copy, dashboards, forms, documentation, presentations, and other layouts where legibility and flexible emphasis matter. It can handle compact labels as well as longer passages, provided the size, spacing, and contrast are set carefully. Italic text can add distinction to notes, captions, or selected emphasis.
Design considerations: The range from 400 through 700 gives you a useful progression from regular text to stronger headings and labels. Keep 400 for extended reading, then reserve 500 or 600 for secondary hierarchy and navigation. Weight 700 can mark major headings or important actions. Since both normal and italic styles are available, use italics selectively rather than relying on extra weight for every distinction.
Pairing guidance: Arimo can work with a serif that brings more visible texture to editorial headings or quotations. For a quieter system, pair it with another sans-serif that has a noticeably different width, weight distribution, or more geometric construction. Keep the companion restrained, and let size, spacing, and weight establish the hierarchy rather than adding too many contrasting styles.
