Pangaia
Pangram Pangram Foundry · Samuel Salminen, Mat Desjardins, Francesca Bolognini · 2023
A nature-themed serif by Samuel Salminen, Mat Desjardins and Francesca Bolognini, drawing its fluid curves and expressive swashes from organic forms found in the natural world.
About
Spanning nine weights from Thin to Black with matching italics and a variable cut, Pangaia's letterforms reference leaves, riverbanks and mountain slopes through undulating strokes and serifs that widen like branches. Alternate glyphs for J, V and W alongside swash variants add further expressiveness suited to branding and editorial use. The 513-glyph set covers a broad range of Latin Extended languages including Croatian, Hungarian, Icelandic and Romanian.
Classification
Pangaia is classified as a serif with organic, nature-inspired curves; its fluid strokes and blossoming serifs draw from natural forms rather than conventional geometric or humanist traditions, placing it firmly in an expressive, organic serif subcategory.
