About Pensum Display Font Family


Pensum Display is the triangular and spiky packmate of text monster Pensum Pro. Designed to be used for anything big and for nothing that isn’t big, Pensum Display is a sharp, high contrast design ready to take on display and headline uses. Distilled from the text-focussed Pensum Pro, Pensum Display embraces extremes. Triangular serifs, spikier detailing, and tighter spacing, Pensum Display brings dynamism to short text in posters, headers, titles, or anywhere where its deep ink traps and high contrast can work their magic. From the extremely thin styles, stylish and fashionable, to the strong black with its striking tension between thick and thin, Pensum Display’s nine weights offer a broad spectrum of expression. When you need emphasis, the matching italics, curvy and deeply ink-trapped, can set heads spinning. With more than 800 glyphs and lots of OpenType features, Pensum Display can fulfil your every display need. For lovers of fine typography, the small caps are designed wider than the caps and punctuation for case and small-cap sensitive variations are available. Pensum Display is Adobe Latin 3 encoded , giving a wide range of flexibility in Latin language support.

About TypeMates

TypeMates: a straightforward font foundry. For years, we — Jakob, Nils and Lisa — have been passionate about type and since 2015 we are working together, from our offices near Munich and Hamburg, as a type foundry. We don’t believe that typefaces are neutral or purely functional systems for reading, rather that they are a visual language with emotional values. Our aim is to be straightforward in the complex field of type design. We do not want to hype or praise type too much, we want to work together with our clients and partners to deliver good results. Our practice covers everything, from the tiniest nuance in a logo or piece of lettering to the design of extensive type systems. And whether it’s a beautiful idea, a complex client project with intense technical demands, or we’re just following our investigative TypeMate’s nose — we’re passionate about well-made letterforms delivered to the highest technical standard. Whether it’s Die Zeit online, Fast Company, Red Bull TV or Lufthansa Magazine, typefaces we designed are used by magazines, newspapers and corporations who set the bar for design.
