Futura®100 Kannada /// Synthesised from international and Indian design inheritances, while benefiting from direct access to Paul Renner’s original designs, Futura®100 Kannada is a reinterpretation of the classic geometric sans into the Kannada script. Streamlined shapes of the virama and ಾ based gunitaksharas, which are borrowed from street lettering tropes and speak directly to this multifaceted legacy, can be accessed through a stylistic set.

Karmina in use /// Since Karmina’s release in 2007, we’ve come across a wide variety of ways the serif font family has been used, ranging from books to newspapers to posters and even documentary films. Here are some of our favourite examples.

Karmina is a versatile type family originally designed to look good under less-than-optimal print conditions. Since then, it has proven to be a go-to typeface for any number of uses, from branding to packaging to these editorial examples.
