geometric sans workhorse with additional inktraps and inkspots


Zimula Styles

About Zimula

Zimula is a classic contemporary geometric typeface and comes in a friendly and warm vibe. With 9 weights ranging from Thin to Black, the standard styles can be used as a workhorse for everyday design tasks.

But the Zimula family comes in two other styles: InkTrap and InkSpot. The former features generous, angular Inktraps, which ensure crisp text in smaller sizes and become a stylistic element in the heavier weights, perfect for catching titles and posters. The latter, on the other hand, fill out the joints, resulting in an irregular texture for the lighter weights and a soft overall appearance for the heavier weights.

With the available variable font, you can choose between InkTrap and InkSpot seamlessly — this opens up options for optimizing body copy and finding just the right amount of character for large-format designs. A generous character set, extensive OpenType features and an alternative set with filled-in punches come on top.
