MegaMegaTypeType
A two-weight display typeface by Cyrus Highsmith built around unconventional weight distribution, conceived as a sketchbook doodle during a meeting.
About
Cyrus Highsmith sketched the idea for Eggwhite during a meeting in 1999, releasing it as an experiment in redistributing stroke weight in ways that defy convention. The family comprises just two styles, Lite and Black, each carrying the same eccentric character. Its limited weight range and playful construction make it a typeface suited to display settings where personality outweighs neutrality.
Classification
Eggwhite is a display typeface defined by unconventional weight distribution across two playful weights, making it unsuitable for text use and firmly in the display category with a novelty character.
