FF Meta for user interfaces

Billy Whited, writing for Typekit:

Originally intended for use at small sizes on low-quality paper, FF Meta was designed to be “very legible, neutral, and space-saving [1].” With its flared strokes, angled terminals, open apertures, and sharp intersections, it possesses highly distinguishable letterforms and an approachability that belies its ruggedness.

Billy goes on to explain that these same qualities help FF Meta excel in user interfaces.
