Start specimen from ParaType

A 1993 all-caps display face by Alexander Kustov, built on heavy geometric forms with angular stencil cuts in the manner of Aldo Novarese's Stop.

About

Designed at TypeMarket in 1993, Start shares its DNA with Novarese's Stop (Nebiolo, 1971), using flat terminals, diagonal slices and tightly enclosed counters to produce a bold, mechanical effect. Available in a single Regular weight, it is an all-caps face intended for poster and decorative applications. The letterforms are uniform in weight with no italic or condensed variants.

Classification

Heavy geometric capitals with angular cuts and stencil-like construction, closely related to the Stop typeface tradition. The letterforms show flat horizontal terminals, diagonal slices and enclosed counters that read as a single bold display weight.
