Description

Zen Loop Family is one of three Latin fonts designed by Yoshimichi Ohira, as part of Zen Fonts collection. Japanese kana characters contain many loops. Zen Loop and Zen Loop Italic incorporates this visual aspect into a Latin font. The font looks as though it was shaped out of a thin wire, and almost depicts the movements of a living organism.

We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep. Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises, sounds, and sweet airs that give delight and hurt not. Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments will hum about mine ears.
