Parkinsans is a geometric sans serif designed for UK charity Parkinson’s UK.
Energetic, human, accessible, approachable – Parkinsans embodies Parkinson’s UK’s relentless energy, whilst typographic quirks reflect the unique experience of every Parkinson’s journey.
Consisting of 6 weights, Parkinsans is designed to grab attention at display sizes and provide an accessible, easy reading experience for short form copy.
Designed by award-winning, London based creative agency Red Stone, Parkinsans is derived from Indian Type Foundry's Poppins.
Red Stone is an award-winning creative agency based in East London. We partner with ambitious and courageous organisations looking to make a positive change to the world.
