Sen
A geometric sans with the corners cut rather than curved — look at the terminals of the s and the c and they end on a straight diagonal, which gives the whole face a slightly engineered edge that pure circles never have. It starts at 400 rather than at a hairline, so the range is entirely in the useful half: regular through to a genuinely heavy 800. Wide apertures keep it legible at interface sizes, and the flat-cut details are the thing that stops it looking like every other geometric.
For putting Sen on a website. The complete font, repacked — same glyphs, same spacing, around 60% smaller than the .ttf, and read by every current browser.
16% smaller, and all the same weights. Everything a page in English, Turkish or a western European language needs — Türkçe included. Take the file above instead if you set Cyrillic, Greek or anything else outside the Latin alphabet.
Other formats
Made in your browser from the WOFF2 above — nothing is uploaded. The .ttf is the same font, though not the same bytes as the original: the exact file Google published is in the zip. Sen is not offered as .otf because that would mean redrawing every outline rather than repacking the file.

Questions
- Is Sen free for commercial use?
- Yes. Sen is released under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which allows commercial use with no fee and no attribution requirement. You can use it in client work, in products you sell, on the web and in print. The one thing you may not do is sell the font file on its own. The licence is inside the download.
- Can I use Sen in a logo?
- Yes. The licence covers the font software, not the artwork you make with it, so a logo set in Sen belongs to you — including if you later register it as a trademark. You do not need permission and you do not owe anything to Kosal Sen. What the licence stops you doing is redistributing the font file itself as a product.
- How do I install Sen?
- Download the zip and unzip it. On a Mac, select the 1 font file inside and open them, then press Install Font. On Windows, select them, right-click and choose Install. Restart any application that was already open before it will show up. Sen is a variable font: the single file carries all 5 weights at once. Some older software — Word, Canva, and Photoshop before 2018 — reads only the one weight the file defaults to, and for Sen that is the regular weight. If that happens, use the Static download on this page instead: it has 5 ordinary files, one per weight, and works everywhere.
- Does Sen support Turkish?
- Yes. Sen includes the characters Türkçe needs that plain Latin does not — the dotless ı, the dotted İ, and ğ, ş, ü, ö and ç in both cases. This was checked against the font file itself, not assumed from the fact that it covers Latin.
- What languages does Sen support?
- Yes. Sen covers Latin, Latin Extended and Turkish, across 363 glyphs. Anything outside those alphabets is not included — the character map further up this page shows exactly what you get.
- Is there a smaller, Latin-only version of Sen?
- Yes — the "WOFF2 · Latin only" button on this page. It is 19 KB against 22 KB for the complete file, 16% smaller, with every weight the family has still in it. It covers Latin and Latin Extended, which is everything a page in English, Turkish or a western European language sets — Türkçe included, since ı, İ, ğ and ş all live in that range. Take the complete file instead if you set Cyrillic, Greek or any alphabet outside Latin.
- Where can I download Sen as WOFF2?
- From the WOFF2 button on this page — the file is sen.woff2, and it is about 22 KB. It is the complete font repacked for the web rather than a cut-down copy: the same glyphs, the same spacing and the same hinting as the .ttf in the download, roughly 60% smaller. Every browser still receiving updates reads WOFF2, so it is the only web format most sites need. Google Fonts does not offer this file for download at all — it serves WOFF2 from its own servers and gives you .ttf if you ask for the family.
