Palanquin

Palanquin is a sans serif family built for broad multilingual use, with support for Devanagari, Latin, and Latin Extended text. Its seven weights, from 100 through 700, give it a wide tonal range, making it easy to move from light, open settings to stronger, more emphatic typography within the same system. As a sans serif, it suggests clarity and straightforward structure rather than ornament, and the family’s weight span makes Palanquin adaptable for both restrained and more assertive compositions.

Palanquin works well in interfaces, editorial layouts, identity systems, and any project that needs a clean sans serif with multilingual coverage. The lighter weights can help create airy text treatments, while the mid and heavier weights provide clear hierarchy for navigation, headings, and short calls to action. It pairs best with typefaces that introduce contrast in texture or proportion, especially when you want Palanquin to handle the functional roles of body copy, labels, or UI text without feeling visually heavy.
