Blimey specimen from Love Letters

A capitals-only poster face of swelling, psychedelic shapes, with a gravity axis that moves its weight up and down.

About

Blimey borrows from Art Nouveau and 70s psychedelic poster lettering, with fat, bulging forms and pinched joins. Each of its eight weights has its own character, and a gravity axis shifts the mass of the letters high or low, giving 16 static styles and a variable font. It is capitals only and built to be used very large.

Classification

Sold as an in-progress release on Future Fonts (v0.4, dormant but still on sale). Capitals only. Art Nouveau and 1970s psychedelic poster shapes with an unusual weight progression and a gravity axis that shifts the mass up or down; eight weights in two static families (A and B), plus a variable font.
