Oilvare is a hand-drawn, layered typeface
family inspired by vintage painted signs and
oil cans. While sturdy, it also has a softer
side—wide proportions, oval-inspired forms,
curled angle strokes (see characters like the
K and V), and a medium contrast all help give
it a little bit of distinction from the
typical sans serif genre.
Mix, match, and layer the styles to your
aesthetic liking. The separate highlight and
shadow options really help the typeface come
alive when colors are used, and there are also
“rough” options for more texture. The subtle
irregularities harken to hand lettering of the
past.
