- Description
- Padauk is a typographic gem that takes inspiration from the intricate letterforms of ancient Burmese script, dating back to the Bagan period. With its sleek, sans-serif design, Padauk presents a harmonious balance between traditional artistry and modern aesthetics. The font incorporates diacritical marks characteristic of Burmese writing, such as the hswe (လဆွဲ) and ya pin (၉). Moreover, it features the distinctive combination of ◌ို, introduced in 1638, replacing the diacritic combination ◌ိုဝ် that disappeared in the mid-1750s. Padauk is an exceptional choice for designers seeking to add a rich cultural touch to their projects, while maintaining a modern and readable appearance.
