Roboto<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-735\" src=\"https:\/\/codewebbarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/roboto-1024x979-2.jpg\" alt=\"roboto\" width=\"1024\" height=\"979\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Designed by Christian Robertson, Roboto is a mechanical, geometric typeface.

This typeface is optimized for excellent readability both on screen and in print. Open Sans has been used in the design of <strong>28 billion web pages<\/strong>. We\u2019ve used it in several projects ourselves, and it\u2019s honestly one of our favorites.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fonts.google.com\/specimen\/Open+Sans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">View Open Sans<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>3.\u00a0Lato<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-737\" src=\"https:\/\/codewebbarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/lato-1024x754-2.jpg\" alt=\"lato\" width=\"1024\" height=\"754\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Lato, designed by \u0141ukasz Dziedzic, is a sans-serif font used on 6.98 billion websites. It offers a wide range of weights, from bold and impactful to ultra-light. I have a special fondness for this font\u2014if I remember correctly, it was one of the first I used with Google Fonts, finally breaking free from the \u201cgrip\u201d of classic Arial.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fonts.google.com\/specimen\/Lato\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">View Lato<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>4.
