About

Designed by Alexey Chekulaev, Kekur adapts the proportions of Helvetica Compressed into a decorative display typeface suited to editorial and magazine contexts. The family is modest in scope, offering Normal and Bold styles only, with no italic variants. Published by Double Alex and distributed via ParaType.

Classification

Based on Helvetica Compressed, Kekur adapts the tight grotesque into a decorative display face with condensed proportions, placing it firmly in the display category rather than pure sans-serif.
