Ploquine – Contemporary Variable Type Family

Ploquine is a family with fourteen static styles and two variable fonts designed by Emma Marichal and published by TypeTogether. With a variable upright and italic option alongside a full sequence of weights, it provides a flexible, carefully engineered typographic system for editorial, brand, and digital work.

A Complete Family for Contemporary Typography

Ploquine is designed as a working family rather than a one-note display face. Its progression from Thin through heavier weights, together with matching italics, gives a layout enough tonal range to establish hierarchy while retaining a cohesive voice. The variable versions extend that flexibility for responsive design and more exact art direction.

For Editorial and Identity Systems

Use Ploquine across publications, brand guidelines, websites, packaging, campaigns, and product interfaces where consistency matters. Its coordinated styles can move from a quieter text setting to a stronger headline without forcing a change of family, helping teams create clear rhythm across formats and screen sizes.

Using Ploquine

Begin with the regular weight for general communication, use lighter cuts to introduce space and restraint, and move into the stronger styles for navigation, headlines, or key campaign lines. The italics offer a useful secondary voice for emphasis, captions, and editorial detail. Keep the surrounding grid simple so the family’s range can do the structural work.

Why It Stands Out

Ploquine combines a broad style range with variable-font flexibility, making it suited to projects that need one adaptable type system across many touchpoints. Its utility is not just in individual letterforms but in the way the family supports consistent hierarchy from first concept to finished application.
