Geometric sans serif typefaces have been a popular design tool ever since these actors took to the world’s stage.
Poppins is one of the newcomers to this long tradition. With support for the Devanagari and Latin writing systems, it is an internationalist take on the genre.
Many of the Latin glyphs (such as the ampersand) are more constructed and rationalist than is typical.
Each letterform is nearly monolinear, with optical corrections applied to stroke joints that were necessary to maintain an even typographic color.
Poppins’s letters are practically monolinear, although optical corrections have been applied to stroke joints where necessary, to maintain an even color in the text.
The Devanagari base character height and the Latin ascender height are equal; Latin capital letters are shorter than the Devanagari characters, and the Latin x-height is set rather high.
