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.

One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin.

He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked. The Metamorphosis is a short story, sometimes regarded as a novella, by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. It has been cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is studied in colleges and universities across the Western world.
