Roundhouse specimen from The Type Foundry

A single-weight geometric sans by James Hurst, built on a strict circular construction with blunt terminals and a crossbar set roughly 8% higher than typical, giving the face a distinctive upright authority.

About

Every bowl in Roundhouse derives from a single perfect circle, a construction rule applied without compromise across all 369 glyphs. The raised crossbar, at 62% of x-height against a conventional 54%, is the defining detail, lending the typeface an assured, upright posture well suited to wayfinding, signage and bold brand identities. Available in a single bold, semi-expanded weight, it is an unambiguous display face rather than a workhorse family.

Classification

A geometric sans built entirely on circular bowl construction with blunt terminals, a semi-expanded width, and a raised crossbar, characteristic of the strict geometric tradition.
