Pepeha Sans is a sans serif, high contrast, uppercase display typeface based loosely on the old-style and transitional type design of Aotearoa New Zealand. The kaupapa of the project and by extension the typeface itself is to be a conveyor of voice and an acknowledgment of home, I want the type to be given as a gift as a representation of my mahi to be used by those I trust to do so.
