About Benne
John Harrington's Benne is a serif that brings together Kannada and Latin script support in a single, harmonious design, making it a practical workhorse for bilingual South Indian publishing. The Kannada letterforms retain traditional proportions while benefiting from the optical refinements associated with book typography. A strong choice for Karnataka government publications, educational textbooks, and digital platforms serving Kannada-speaking users.
