Designers Note
Shrikhand is a bold, modern sans-serif typeface with a clean and geometric design. Inspired by Indian typography, it features balanced letterforms and excellent legibility, making it ideal for headlines, logos, and display use. Its strong presence and contemporary style work well in digital and print media, especially for creative and branding projects seeking a vibrant, eye-catching look.
Shrikhand supports the Gujarati and Latin writing systems. The name (શ્રીખંડ) is a sweet and creamy Gujarati dessert that is a particular favourite of the designer, Jonny Pinhorn.
In the three or four years prior to the initial development of this font in June 2015, Jonny lived in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, working for Indian Type Foundry. During this time India had a profound effect on his design philosophy and general worldview. Shrikhand is the culmination of three years absorbing the colourful and vibrant hand-painted lettering that can be seen on the streets in Gujarat. Big, bold, and unapologetic, Shrikhand is a display type that evolved from discussions with colleagues about how good the Gujarati script looks when it is free to be as curvaceous and expressive as possible.
