Softmachine specimen from ParaType

A single-weight bold display face from Shinntype built around the principle of uniform inter-stroke spacing, enforced through letter shape, spacing, kerning and OpenType Contextual Alternates.

About

Every design decision in Softmachine – the rounded terminals, bold weight and letter proportions – serves a single goal: equal distance between strokes both within and between characters. OpenType Contextual Alternates handle adjacent glyph combinations that cannot be resolved through kerning alone, producing an unusually consistent typographic colour. A stylistic alternate set is also included.

Classification

A bold, rounded display face engineered around uniform inter-stroke spacing, placing it firmly in the display category. The geometric regularity and rounded terminals give it a distinctly constructed, experimental character rather than a conventional text or grotesque classification.
