Designers Note
Secular One is a modern, clean sans-serif font with a balanced and versatile design. Its clear lines and open spacing make it highly readable on both screens and print. With a neutral yet friendly appearance, it works well for a variety of design projects, from websites and apps to branding and editorial layouts. The font offers a contemporary feel while maintaining excellent legibility, making it a great choice for user interfaces, headings, and body text alike. Its minimalist style adds a touch of elegance to any visual composition.
Secular One is an original Hebrew and Latin humanistic sans serif typeface with a single weight. At the time of publication (2016) there were not yet many Hebrew sans serif text typefaces. The designer Michal Sahar wanted to create a fresh, “easy going” design, simple but not neutral, friendly but not flattering or over-styled, straight but not too much… and highly readable in small sizes and long paragraphs. The Secular letterforms work equally well when used at large sizes where the delicate and eccentric elements are revealed, making it useful for branding purposes as well as typsetting long-form texts.
The Secular project is led by Michal Sahar, a type designer based in Tel Aviv, Israel.
