About the family


Basenji takes the playful geometry of the 1970s—think Rondo, Pump, Bauhaus, and Blippo—and reimagines it with the precision and versatility today’s designers expect. Instead of feeling locked in the past, it delivers a full, flexible family with refined spacing, modern OpenType features, and italics that expand its range far beyond nostalgia.

Spanning nine weights from ultra-light to heavy, Basenji shifts smoothly from subtle elegance to bold, sculptural impact. The lighter cuts bring softness and charm, while the heavier ones land with confidence—equally at home in branding, editorial design, or large-scale signage.

It’s a typeface that carries the warmth of its 70s roots while integrating seamlessly into contemporary workflows. For anyone who admired the classics but wanted them sharper, broader, and more adaptable, Basenji is the modern solution.
