I’ll say it: Calibri is a horrible, remarkably ugly typeface.


I disagree. I’ve always quite liked it.


Well that solves that. Case closed!


Oh, I wouldn’t say that. Taste is subjective.


To me it seems completely innocuous and unremarkable, which is its purpose.


It's entirely too full of itself. It might even be "embrace, extend, extinguish" as a typeface. Ruins anything you use it in.


It just exists, its not pretty or ugly. And that was the appeal and point of it.


It really is. I don't know how they managed to create a font that is so unremarkable and remarkably ugly at the same time.


Callibri is a nice business font actually, slightly opinionated and definitely not good for everything. Like a Prius when it came out.
