Kagitingan is a free, open-type display font inspired by “Araw ng Kagitingan” or “Day of Valor,” a Philippine national holiday commemorating the fall of Bataan during World War II. The font’s name, Kagitingan, was chosen after considering other names like Kababayan, Makabayan, and Manila. Kagitingan means bravery in Filipino, reflecting the font’s strong and bold aesthetic, much like the Narra tree, which symbolizes resilience.
The font also draws inspiration from the weaved mat or “banig,” a traditional Philippine product that signifies meaningful connection and strong bonds. Additionally, the creator was born on the same day as Araw ng Kagitingan, making “Kagitingan” a fitting name for their first font project. The font is dedicated to frontliners risking their lives in the battle against COVID-19, honoring them as modern-day heroes.
For graphic designers, Kagitingan Font can be used in branding materials, especially for brands that want to project strength and reliability. Its bold letters ensure readability even from a distance, making it suitable for billboards and large-scale advertisements. UI/UX designers can utilize this font for attention-grabbing headlines and call-to-action buttons, ensuring that key messages stand out.
Web and mobile designers can integrate Kagitingan Font into hero sections and banners, creating a strong first impression. The font’s cultural roots make it particularly appealing for projects related to Philippine culture or any design that seeks to honor bravery and resilience.
