Baro specimen from Indian Type Foundry

A seven-style all-caps geometric display family designed for chromatic layering, with each variant offering a distinct stroke treatment from monolinear solid to multi-line prismatic outlines.

About

Designed by Julie Soudanne and released in 2018, Baro comprises seven fonts – Plain, LineOne, LineTwo, LineThree, LineFour, Contour and Strip – each built on the same all-caps geometric skeleton but with differing stroke treatments. The fonts are engineered to stack on separate layers in applications such as Adobe Creative Suite, enabling chromatic typesetting by assigning a different colour to each layer. Plain serves as the base, while variants add inline strokes, parallel outlines, bouncing baselines and prismatic effects.

Classification

An all-caps geometric display family designed for chromatic layering, with monolinear strokes and multiple inline, outline and prismatic variants intended for decorative typesetting rather than running text.
