Pensum Pro is a typeface for text, text and nothing but text. A pure monster, straight and plain, it will reliably set word after word, line after line and paragraph after paragraph. Sometimes a spark of the sexy, curvy and sharply ink-trapped italic will sneak into proceedings but the plain workhorse will keep on setting text. Deep inside, some sharp details are hidden and some brushy and smooth shapes lurk, waiting to reveal themselves in large sizes.
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.
Pensum Sans a poetic and precise soulmate within the Pensum Trilogy — a typeface with absolutely no serifs. No, not even one. As readable as Pensum Pro, with italics that are just as sexy, Pensum Sans is a powerhorse for text, text and nothing but text. With the same legible skeleton as the serif, Pensum Sans echoes and contrasts with its companions: steady rhythm, smooth and sharp shapes, unexpected detailing.
Pensum Stencil exaggerates. Inspired by Pensum Display, it turns up the contrast: breaking letters into individual shapes to create a fusion of brushy elements and spiky details. A high contrast design, Pensum Stencil brings expression to editorial headlines, confident branding, artisanal packaging or anywhere that its sharp stencil cuts can work their magic.
