Pitanga specimen from Sofia Mohr

A sculpted display typeface by Sofia Mohr, published by Fábio Haag Type in 2024, with loose organic strokes rooted in Brazilian cultural identity.

About

Designed by Sofia Mohr in collaboration with Fábio Haag Type, Pitanga draws its character from Brazilian cultural expression – improvisation, movement and sensory abundance translated into type. The letterforms are light and organic, with a confident looseness that makes the face adaptable across a range of expressive uses. It is positioned as a versatile display typeface with a strong cultural voice rather than a neutral workhorse.

Classification

Organic, loose strokes and sculptural letterforms place this firmly in expressive display territory, with a hand-drawn quality that resists strict geometric or humanist classification.
