Designed by Isabella Chaeva, Manvel Shmavonyan, Alexander Tarbeev and Vladimir Yefimov, Pragmatica is a display sans and sans serif font family. This typeface has forty-four styles and was published by ParaType.
Pragmatica emerged as a spin-off of the Encyclopedia-4 typeface created by the Polygraphmash type design bureau in 1987. Inspired by Helvetica (Neue Haas Grotesk) from the Haas typefoundry in 1957, designed by Eduard Hoffman and Max Miedinger, Pragmatica builds upon 19th-century Grotesque designs, introducing a new standard of mathematical precision to sans serif typography.
Initially released in 1989 by Vladimir Yefimov at ParaType (ParaGraph), Pragmatica comprised four core styles. In 2003, Olga Chaeva expanded the family with eight additional styles. Condensed variations were introduced between 1993 and 2004 through collaboration among Vladimir Yefimov, Alexander Tarbeev, Manvel Shmavonyan, and Dmitry Kirsanov. Further extensions to the family in 2004 by Olga Chaeva and Manvel Shmavonyan introduced extended styles.
Pragmatica has found widespread use across diverse applications, including magazines, books, advertising, and headlines, owing to its versatile and enduring design principles.
