Typeface Design for Fontfabric
54 styles across standard and narrow subfamilies, plus a full icon system
Panton is a geometric sans-serif family designed by Ivan Petrov and Svet Simov at Fontfabric, released in January 2015. It is built around softened geometric forms with optimized kerning, intended for both headline and body-text use across print and digital contexts. The family spans 54 styles across two subfamilies—Panton and Panton Narrow—plus 16 bonus icon sets. Version 3.0 added Bulgarian localization, tabular figures, case-sensitive punctuation, and extended glyph coverage.

Insights
- The Narrow subfamily mirrors the main family's weight range but stops at Heavy, omitting the Fat weight.
- Icon sets are structured in four groups (A–D), each offered in outline and filled variants at two weights.
- Bulgarian localization was introduced as a deliberate addition in Update 3.0.
- Font production and art direction were handled by Plamen Motev as a distinct role from type design.
