A shadow-only layer typeface designed to sit atop its companion Chiq, casting transparent letterforms with progressively deeper shadows from Light through to Black.
About
Shad consists solely of the shadows of each letter, with the letterforms themselves left transparent and unfilled. Shadow depth scales with weight, so the Light cuts a shallow shadow while the Black throws a wide, deep one. Metrics match those of Chiq exactly, allowing precise overlay of both fonts to create layered 3D typographic effects.
Classification
Shad is a pure shadow typeface designed as a layering companion to the Chiq family. The letterforms themselves are transparent, leaving only the cast shadow visible, and the shadow depth increases proportionally with weight, making this a specialised display layer font.
