Thanks for spotting this, Alex. @font-face is allowed for all free weights/styles offered via MyFonts as is Cufon.

This site ^ embeds MuseoSans into the page via cufon javascript hackery. Not sure if this is OK with the Museo license.

Hi Anna,

I succesfully made a sans before out of a semi serif with Fontin Sans. I found out —after a few little tests— that the skeleton of Museo was great to make a nice geometric sans with a humanistic touch from. Museo Sans can be used very broad. I’ve seen great text examples, but also beautiful display uses.

Would love to see (a pdf of) the final specimen poster!

Hi Jos,

I’m a communication design student at Louisiana Tech University. My final project for the quarter is a type specimen poster, and I was assigned Museo Sans. I’m really excited about this project, because after researching and studying the typeface, I have become a big fan of the typeface as well as your others.

I’m having a little trouble, however. Whereas some of my classmates have typefaces with long histories, Museo Sans is just an infant. I have read your interviews, and have looked at some of the usages of the type, but I am still a little confused about your inspiration for Museo Sans.

I know Museo Sans is an adaptation of Museo, and I have read about your inspiration for the original–the shape of the “U”; I am curious about your inspiration for Museo Sans–was it originally created because of the success of Museo, or had you always planned on creating the sans serif version? When creating the typeface, how did you imagine it being used?

hey jos, i also would like to humbly request an italic for the museo family, i have used museo for some magazine layouts and would have really loved an italic… oh and btw, i’m one of the people is who is happy to pay for fine fonts, so if you decided to sell the italics i’d buy them. cheers!
