sans-serifhumanist sansitalic
Pitanga specimen from Fabio Haag Type

A humanist sans from Brazilian designer Sofia Mohr, drawing on the country's cultural plurality through loose, organic strokes across eight weights and two styles.

About

Pitanga takes its cues from the improvisational energy and visual richness of Brazilian culture, translating that spirit into letterforms with a light, sculpted quality. Eight weights from Thin to ExtraBold, each with an italic, give the family genuine range across editorial, display and text applications. Extensive OpenType features include proportional and tabular figures, multiple stylistic sets and a broad Latin language coverage of 209 languages.

Classification

Pitanga's organic, loose strokes and pronounced curves place it firmly in the humanist sans tradition, where letterforms draw energy from calligraphic gesture rather than geometric or grotesque logic.
