What is the Kawak font?
Kawak is a sans inspired by Mayan glyphs from the Tzolk’in ritual cycle. Kawak marries modernist typographic tradition with Pre-Hispanic formalism, creating a perfect blend between cleanliness, readability, objectivity, and the Mayan super-ellipse.
Kawak was designed by Javier Viramontes during the [email protected], Extended Program under the careful guidance of Jesse Reagan and an amazing repertoire of visiting critics. The project was finalized by Alfonso Garcia and the Latinotype team. More…
Kawak contains 454 characters and can support 128 languages through Latinotype’s standard set. The family consists of 6 weights and 6 italics.

You're probably thinking - Is Kawak available to Download for free?

It is always best to pay for a premium font rather than trying to find an illegal download. The benefits of paying for Kawak is that you get the license to use it leagally.
