About Zen Antique
Zen Antique by Yoshimichi Ohira is a contemplative Japanese serif that extends its coverage to Cyrillic, Greek, and Latin — an unusual range that makes it viable for multilingual literary publications. The letterforms carry a quiet, antiquated beauty, evoking the feel of handset lead type and traditional East Asian printing. It suits projects that value meditative restraint: poetry collections, cultural institution branding, and literary small-press publishing.
