Gigo Type specimen from Ian Adjeidu

A fluid calligraphic display face drawn from the visual momentum of liquid, aimed at chrometype effects and experimental logotypes.

About

Gigo takes its form from the flowing quality of liquid, giving each letter a loose, hand-drawn momentum suited to large-scale display. Supplied as a single OTF, it is designed as a starting point rather than a finished system – the expectation is that designers will add their own shapes and modifications. Best used for chrometype treatments and experimental logos rather than set text.

Classification

Fluid calligraphic display face with a liquid, hand-drawn quality. Single OTF weight; no italics, condensed, or text variants. Note: the Gumroad page (manasseto.gumroad.com) belongs to Manas Trivedi, who collaborated with Ian Adjeidu on the POLKA typeface. Gigo Type appears to be Manas Trivedi's solo project attributed here under Ian Adjeidu per workflow specification. Designed for display-only use – chrometype effects and experimental logotypes. Not suited to running text.
