Sakka Display Typeface

Introducing #SakkaTypeface, a contemporary uppercase display typeface hinted with cultural elements led by philosophies taken from Indonesia’s national flag: Sang Saka Merah Putih (The Sacred Red & White Heirloom Flag).

Red above and white below, the flag symbolises courage and purity. Sakka Typeface explores the theme of courage through its sharp serifs that portray Bambu Runcing, a sharpened bamboo used formidably during early colonial days when oppressed Indonesians had nothing else to combat with. Whereas its curved interior forms reflect an inner spirit of purity, this characteristic also appears in certain letterform combinations that fold hands together to form a greeting gesture local Indonesians use, a “salam.”

Sakka works best for headlines and titles. Lure in your viewer's attention with its gracious connections and contemporary-yet-historical feel.

Purchase a license based on the size of the company licensing the typeface, not the number of users. Each license grants you to use the Font Software for all of your creative projects—print and digital. If you plan to use it for personal work, choose the lowest tier. You are not required to update your license if your company grows but it would really help me if you did. :)
