About the family


Pakenham isn’t here to strut or shout—it’s the typeface that gets the job done with a quiet, square-shouldered confidence. Its proportions lean toward the superellipse, giving it a hint of geometry without feeling cold. A modest x-height keeps the lowercase letters composed, while those angled ascender ends—borrowed from hand-painted sign traditions—add just enough personality to set it apart from faceless corporate sans-serifs.

This is a type family built for real-world versatility. In regular weights, it reads effortlessly in long text, lending a touch of order and formality to paragraphs. In bold, it becomes a headline anchor—solid, unpretentious, and easy to spot. The condensed cuts pack words tightly without sacrificing legibility, perfect for posters, signage, or packaging where space is at a premium. Pakenham works anywhere you need legibility with a subtle twist: municipal branding, outdoor wayfinding, book covers, editorial spreads, or heritage-flavored packaging. It’s the sans-serif for projects that demand trustworthiness but still appreciate a bit of human character in the letterforms.

With four weights, two widths, italics, and special effect styles, Pakenham is a true utility player. It’s not slick, it’s not showy—but it will give your words a sturdy foundation, a touch of warmth, and a dash of individuality.
