Playground

Born from the research that went into the creation of Pangram Playground. PP Playground is a contemporary script, a reinterpretation of the classical copperplate calligraphic style, composed initially with the pointed nib pen. The shapes of Playground font came to life at the intersection of the pen’s logical rhythm, the rich historical calligraphic references, and the precise geometrical construction of the letters.

This creative process serves the Playground world, where the seriousness of work is questioned by the necessity of experiment and play to continue to inspire. The elegance of the copperplate script is interrupted by unexpected shapes. We wanted to create surprising tensions from exaggerated contrast and thin horizontal lines. Square forms melted with flourishing curves, and acute cuts and round shoulders were used.

The Playground font set includes a semi-connected script, where not all letters are joined. However, the complete cursive connection can be achieved by using the contextual alternates feature. Additionally, two sets of capital letters are available. The first set is closer to italic capitals, while the second set includes swashes for a more calligraphic and expressive variation.

The script has 5 weights. Lighter weights are suitable for display sizes, and darker weights are safe for smaller sizes.
