The Typeface
Bárur is a bespoke serif typeface that balances expressiveness and clarity. Designed for impactful typographic compositions, it currently features uppercase letters in one weight with foreign language support (Latin alphabet), numerals, punctuation, and symbols. A light version is nearly complete, with a bold version in early development.
Select serifs—on letters C, G, and S—are omitted and offered as alternates, alongside 39 ligatures and a range of additional glyphs for flexible customization.
Type Background
Rooted in a custom wordmark created in 2024 for a → wellness brand, Bárur takes its name from the Old Norse word for »waves«. It reflects natural movement and rhythm: the ocean’s ebb and flow, a heartbeat, the phases of the moon. Soft, rounded serifs lend Bárur a distinctly organic and feminine character, leading the eye fluidly from one letter to the next.
Though legible in smaller sizes, Bárur’s true strength shines in display contexts—from logos and packaging to exhibition graphics and editorial statements.

Not sure which license is right for you? Read up on it → here.

◦ Before You License
● See the full → EULA for complete license terms and usage rights.
● Licenses are priced by the total company size of the license owner and the intended use. The license owner is the end client—the company that benefits from the design. Designers or agencies can purchase on their behalf, but the license must match the client’s company size.
● Choose the license based on how the font will be used. A desktop/print license covers most design work—print, static digital layouts, and image-based graphics; excludes goods for sale. A web license is needed for self-hosting fonts on a website. A logo license covers using the font to design your (or your client’s) logo or wordmark. If the fonts appear in videos or social media content, a social media + broadcast license applies (included with desktop/print license for ≤25 employees; not valid standalone).
● Designers don’t need a separate license if they are the one initial subcontractor included in the client’s license. That means: if you’re a designer or agency creating work for a client, your use of the font(s) is covered by your client’s license—as long as you use them exclusively for their project.
● Need more seats or external collaborators? Each license includes one initial subcontractor (e. g. designer, agency). If multiple external collaborators need to install the font(s), you can easily add inexpensive seat licenses for each user to stay compliant.
● Not sure which license you need or require one for a larger company? → Write to us with your project details—we’ll help you choose the right license and, if needed, provide a custom quote tailored to your use case.
