Bilbao
Capitalics · Mateusz Machalski
A geometric hybrid typeface blending sans, slab and mono references across 22 styles from Hairline to Black, aimed at branding and display use.
About
Designed by Mateusz Machalski at Capitalics, Bilbao draws from sans, slab and mono traditions while maintaining a consistent geometric character throughout its range. The full family spans 11 weights from Hairline to Black, each with a matching italic, giving designers broad flexibility for hierarchical work. The foundry positions it for branding and display purposes, where its mixed structural references read as approachable rather than clinical.
Classification
Described by the foundry as a hybrid of sans, slab and mono with geometric details; the blending of structural references across multiple type categories makes display the most accurate top-level classification.
