For an online magazine about architecture, the design team set body text in Exbed Regular at 18px with a line-height of 1.6. The font’s generous x-height (the height of lowercase letters relative to capitals) made long articles feel less dense and more inviting to read.

The Exbed Font is a contemporary geometric sans-serif typeface characterized by its high x-height, uniform stroke weights, and subtly rounded terminals. Unlike harsh geometric fonts like Futura or Bauhaus, Exbed introduces a humanist touch to the rigid grid. The name "Exbed" is derived from "Expanded Bedrock," hinting at its design philosophy: a wide, stable foundation (like bedrock) that adapts to expansive screen and print environments.

Originally released in 2020 by the independent type foundry Nexus Foundry, Exbed quickly gained traction among tech startups and editorial designers for its legibility at micro-sizes and its commanding presence in headlines.
