FS Untitled’s roots lie in Fontsmith’s creation of the iconic typeface for Channel 4’s rebrand in 2005: the classic, quirky, edgy C4 headline font, with its rounded square shapes and blocky baseline serifs, and a toned-down version for use in text, captions and content graphics. Eleven years on, the text font is still going strong in C4’s online presence, but the broadcaster’s ten-year exclusivity license on the font has passed, leaving Fontsmith free to develop it for a much wider audience.

And for anyone interested in obtaining a copy of this particular font, it's £80 for a "Single weight" and £200 for the full "Family".

Cheap! /s

If you look at the cost of other fonts, and you'll see it's a bargain for a full set.

Helvetica is just over £1000.
