MegaMegaTypeType
A stencil sans originally designed in 2006 for the wayfinding system of the Al Hamra Complex in Kuwait, with built-in pictograms triggered via OpenType discretionary ligatures.
About
Designed for the Al Hamra Complex adjacent to one of Kuwait's tallest skyscrapers, Siruca pairs a stencil sans-serif letterform with an integrated set of pictograms that appear automatically when typing certain words. The pictogram system relies on OpenType discretionary ligatures, making it practical for signage and wayfinding projects without requiring separate icon management. It has since been used for lower-budget identity work and as a headline face.
Classification
A stencil typeface designed for wayfinding and signage, with integrated OpenType pictograms accessible via discretionary ligatures. Its sans-serif skeleton and stencil cuts place it firmly in the display/stencil category.
