KSW Uberground Pro specimen from ParaType

An all-caps geometric display face blending DIN 1451's grid-based precision with the character differentiation of Charles Wright's 1935 British licence plate typeface.

About

The design draws on two early 20th-century industrial lettering traditions: the narrow DIN Engschrift standard of 1927 and Wright's 1935 UK licence plate face, which deliberately distinguishes otherwise similar characters. Extended Latin and Cyrillic are supported, alongside stylistic alternates offering cut corners, simplified forms, varied character widths, different inclination angles and vertically shifted axes. Alternate bracket punctuation at different heights adds further typographic flexibility.

Classification

All-caps geometric display typeface drawing on early 20th-century German and British industrial lettering traditions, combining DIN 1451 grid precision with the distinctive character differentiation of Charles Wright's 1935 UK licence plate face.
