About Roboto

Dirancang oleh Christian Robertson untuk ekosistem Material Design Google, sans-serif neo-grotesque ini merupakan tipografi yang paling banyak digunakan di web dan Android. Desainnya yang memiliki dua sisi menyeimbangkan ketepatan mekanis dengan ritme baca yang alami, sehingga sama nyamannya digunakan untuk label UI maupun teks panjang. Font variabel ini mendukung sumbu lebar dan berat, beserta aksara Sirilik, Yunani, dan Latin yang diperluas.

Typography Concepts

  • Baseline

    The invisible line on which most letters sit. Descenders extend below the baseline.

  • x-height

    The height of lowercase letters (like 'x') measured from the baseline. A key factor in perceived font size and readability.

  • Descender

    The part of a letter that extends below the baseline, as in 'g', 'j', 'p', 'q', 'y'.

  • Bowl

    The curved stroke creating an enclosed counter in letters like 'b', 'd', 'p', 'q'. The shape varies widely between typefaces.

  • Stem

    The main vertical stroke of a letter, such as the upright in 'l', 'b', 'd'. The heaviest stroke in most typeface designs.

  • Sans Serif

    A typeface without serifs — 'sans' means 'without' in French. Clean, modern appearance popular in digital design.
