//STRIPS

Solid

The workhorse. Fascia vinyl, posters, wall labels, one-colour print. Works in every app.

//STRIPS

Line

The red line as a cut. It sits at the same height in every letter, so it runs unbroken across a word, a sign, a whole street.

//STRIPS

Strips

Colour font. Every letter is a //Strips, with the red line through the middle. Eight palettes built in. Apps without colour support fall back to Solid.

How it's built

One rule, one line

  1. The leaf rule. Corners facing up-left and down-right are rounded. The other two stay sharp. Every square letter turns into a mint leaf... and the shapes still hold when you spin them 180°.
  2. The red line. Fixed at one height across the whole font, right through the crossbars. Type a word and it runs straight through, like it does across a painting.
  3. Built for signs. Wide, heavy, flat-topped caps that read from across the street. Figures share one width so prices and token amounts line up.
  4. Crypto native. Ξ, ₿ and ⟠ drawn to match, a pixel zero for 0x addresses, and Đ and Ł while we're at it.
