Eckig specimen from IngoFonts

A capitals-only geometric face built entirely from straight strokes, originating from a stamp-printing process using metal plate edges and acrylic paint.

About

Each letterform is assembled from short, straight segments rather than curves, with round forms approximated by angular solutions. The typeface was physically produced using metal plate edges as stamps, and the fluidity of the acrylic ink has been preserved in the final font, lending a soft, handmade quality to what is otherwise a strictly rectilinear construction. OpenType features including ligatures, rare ligatures and small caps allow three distinct visual registers: monumental wide capitals, narrow uniform small caps, or a varied mix of alternating wide and narrow forms.

Classification

An all-caps geometric display face constructed entirely from straight strokes, with lowercase slots occupied by narrower versions of the capitals. Its angular, modular construction places it firmly in the geometric display category, though its stamp-printed origin gives it a handmade texture.
