A free single-weight display face inspired by monument engravings, with extremely heavy uppercase forms contrasted against lighter, more composed lowercase letters.
About
The uppercase characters push mass to an extreme, approaching abstract geometric forms rather than conventional letterfaces, while the lowercase offers a more balanced counterpart drawn from the same skeleton. OpenType substitution automatically matches punctuation and numerals to whichever case is in use, giving the designer flexibility in mixed-case settings. Available free for non-commercial use, with commercial licences available on request.
Classification
A single-weight display typeface with two distinct letterform registers: an extremely heavy, near-abstract uppercase and a lighter, more legible lowercase. The contrast between the two cases is the defining feature, making conventional subcategory labels secondary to its display purpose.
