A broad set of Japanese punctuation with 692 glyphs & stylish alternates.

• PP Kyoto is a slab serif that naturally bridges tradition and modernity. With a solid structure, distinctive features, and expressive character, it was designed to stand out, especially in headlines. Its bold slabs contrast with soft, teardrop terminals, while prominent dots create a rhythmic flow, adding energy to the composition.

• The design remained on the shelf for years, slowly maturing into its current form. It all began as a study of Japanese writing systems, an exploration of how a slab serif could visually connect with the Japanese writing systems. The result is a unique typeface, shaped by trial, error, and persistence, now brought fully to life.

 

• The family includes 9 weights, from Thin to Heavy, each with matching italics, maintaining consistency and presence across applications. What truly sets PP Kyoto apart is its range: beyond a full Latin character set, it offers complete support for hiragana and katakana, with a carefully considered approach to bilingual typography. A broad set of Japanese punctuation allows for expressive and practical use in multilingual layouts.

 

• With 692 glyphs, stylistic alternates, including an alternate Q, and meticulous attention to detail, PP Kyoto offers both control and flexibility. It’s a typeface built for designers who seek visual impact with technical consistency, in projects that demand both elegance and extended language support.
