A single-weight stencil display face by Cyrus Highsmith, born from paper-cutting and featuring a randomising function that lends words a handmade, irregular quality.
About
Drawn from Highsmith's interest in stencils and modular alphabets, Tick uses a randomising feature built into the font to vary letterforms across a word, avoiding the mechanical repetition common to stencil types. Available in one weight only, it covers Latin Extended with stylistic alternates for key uppercase letters and a full set of ligatures. Suited to short display use where a rough, cut-paper texture is the point.
Classification
Tick is a single-weight stencil display face derived from paper-cutting and modular alphabet construction, with a randomising feature that simulates handmade irregularity. Its primary function is large-scale attention-grabbing text rather than extended setting.
