Suggested, not measured
Typecase measures fonts from their outlines. Futura ND is not on this machine, so these were chosen by what is known about it — classification, lineage, common use — and each is labelled with that basis. Open one to see its measured character and neighbours.
Quiet luxury, approachable
The Jost webfont did not load here — this is a fallback face, not Jost.
commonly substituted
Its page says it is inspired by 1920s German sans-serifs, the tradition Futura defines; the closest free match to Futura's pointed apexes and circular bowls.
Quiet luxury, approachable
The Josefin Sans webfont did not load here — this is a fallback face, not Josefin Sans.
same classification
Inspired by 1920s geometric sans designs, with a deliberately low x-height; stronger vintage flavour than Futura and meant for larger sizes.
Quiet luxury, approachable
The League Spartan webfont did not load here — this is a fallback face, not League Spartan.
same classification
An interpretation of Spartan, itself based on early twentieth-century American geometric sans faces; heavier and closer-fitting than Futura.
Quiet luxury, approachable
The Poppins webfont did not load here — this is a fallback face, not Poppins.
commonly substituted
A geometric sans in wide use; rounder, larger on the body and more constructed than Futura, so it reads as friendlier and less austere.
