PTS Leffa specimen from Paavola Type

A geometric sans-serif in eight weights defined by flattened curves and horizontal cuts that give rounded letterforms a compact, grounded solidity suited to headline and identity work.

About

The family's distinctive feature is the interruption of round characters with flat horizontal sections, creating a consistent rhythm across words and producing forms that read as sturdy without becoming rigid. Lighter weights expose the underlying construction clearly, whilst the heavier cuts grow increasingly dense and graphic, with tightening counters that coalesce into solid blocks of type. Its relatively restrained construction means it can operate across a broad range of display contexts without the shapes becoming overbearing.

Classification

A geometric sans-serif distinguished by systematically flattened curves that interrupt rounded forms with horizontal cuts, giving it a blocky, structural character distinct from conventional geometric or grotesque sans families.
