Knopp
Bloom Type · Baptiste Guesnon · 2022
A curvy variable display sans by Baptiste Guesnon whose weight axis is designed to suggest stages of blooming, from tight bud to fully open flower.
About
Released by Bloom Type in October 2022, Knopp spans five weights from Regular to Black with a variable font axis intended for animation and interactive motion work. The letterforms are deliberately curvy and expressive, drawing on the visual language of spring growth, with each heavier weight opening the forms further. It pairs with the companion typeface Knapp, a calmer sans suited to body text.
Classification
Knopp is a curvy, expressive sans-serif designed explicitly for display and animated use, with letterforms that shift dramatically across a variable weight axis to suggest organic blooming. Its ornamental character places it firmly in the display category.
