Kermit comes in 7 weights, each with accompanying italics. In addition to these 14 styles, there are 14 Condensed and 14 Expanded styles to the static – non-writable – font family. These 42 fonts offer a diverse typographic palette.

While working with Kermit for a longer period, users will experience that Kermit is not only a friendly-looking font family, but also practical to work with. All numbers are tabular for example, all currency symbols are duplexed, simplifying the creation of complex tables. Alternative shapes, like a double-storey shape for lowercase ‘a’, are available via an OpenType feature and offer more typographic expression.

Kermit has some handy ingredients which are not directly visible from its kawaii aesthetic. And those who just want to enjoy the attractive, charming letterforms of this font family, will be happy that the wabi-sabi spirit is all over each glyph in each style.

Next to these 42 static fonts, there are also various variable fonts of Kermit. More “traditional” variable fonts with a weight & width axis are available, but there is also a writable font – a typeface that can be written as one writes by hand: stroke by stroke, in the correct order, at the right speed, at the right time. This innovative design enables new digital reading experiences, for example as support for learning to read.
