From the foundry
Pawla is a compressed, ultra-thin display typeface inspired by the Deco-style lettering on the façade of a former pharmacy in Hilversum, the Netherlands. It features unusually narrow proportions, delicate linear construction, and lenticular shapes in place of conventional circular forms, giving it a sharp, recognizable rhythm. Its compressed structure and Deco character suit fashion branding, cosmetics packaging, editorial headlines, posters, signage, websites, and cultural projects.
