Sansita One by Pablo Cosgaya of Omnibus-Type is a free decorative display font with broad, rolling forms and pronounced thick-to-thin strokes. Softly flared ends and deep curves give the letters a lively, slightly theatrical silhouette. The mixed proportions keep the line from looking too formal or mannered.
Its swelling curves echo the shapes of ribbons and hand-painted signs, making it a useful companion to illustrated packaging, festival posters, and food branding. The lettering is strongest on book covers, where its generous forms and crisp changes in weight can turn a title into part of the artwork rather than a neutral caption.
Sansita One is a tasty new Omnibus-Type font designed by Pablo Cosgaya. The flavor of Sansita One's lowercase explores the relationship between typography and calligraphy. The elegance of Sansita One's uppercase makes this an excellent choice for packaging, brief texts, branding and slogans.
