'''Charlotte Sans''' is a humanist [[sans-serif]] typeface designed by Michael Gills in 1992 as part of a larger family called Charlotte, which includes a related serif text face. The face was designed for [[Letraset]].<br />
<br />
Charlotte Sans bears comparison with Eric Gill's 1927 face [[Gill Sans]], sharing several humanist sans-serif characteristics: a double-story roman '''a''' and '''g''', and a single-story lowercase italic '''a'''. Charlotte Sans has a tapered glyphic stroke in the '''t'''. Terminals in vertical strokes are not parallel to the baseline but instead cut at an angle. Similarities can be seen with [[Syntax (typeface)|Syntax]] and [[FF Scala Sans]]. The overall stroke width is varied, and rhythmic is seen especially in the serif version of the face, which was inspired by the types of 18th-century punch-cutter [[Pierre-Simon Fournier]].<br />
