Casual and professional. Naïve and advanced. Basic and cutting-edge. Our new Playpen Sans font family from Veronika Burian, Laura Meseguer, and José Scaglione has it all. 

Its easygoing aesthetic hides the coding prowess that randomly shuffles through the seven glyphs created for each character. We then added alternate character styles, reward emojis, and made it work for over 150 Latin-based languages. It’s much more than elementary, my dear!

Playpen Sans is where digital excellence meets casual handwriting, it’s perfect for casual notes, comic books, branding, children’s works, and offhand remarks. Try it on our website tester, download the PDF specimen for more details, and download it — for free! — through our online store. 

Read the full story of how Playpen Sans came to life within this multi-pronged system.
