All About Poppins
Poppins is a versatile, geometric sans-serif typeface. It has clean, monolinear strokes and a contemporary feel, making it suitable for use in headings, logos, and web design. Its polished look makes it a go-to for designers seeking a sharp, modern style. My favorite part is that Poppins has great multi-lingual support, due to having an extensive character set. Poppin’s consistent stroke contrast also creates a clean and minimalist look.
