Pancho is a very informal sans serif. It’s story started with its name. Shiva Nallaperumal and Satya Rajpurohit were toying with the word “Pancho” and wondered if a typeface could be designed with just the name as a starting point, without any other conscious precedents or intended applications. Pancho is now the jester in ITF’s otherwise serious catalogue; the typeface brings comic relief to our library. The typeface pays some tribute to the work of Roger Excoffon, for instance in the top-heaviness of many of its letters, or the form of its capital “O.” Pancho is Shiva Nallaperumal’s first typeface to be published by ITF.
