CoFo Kabeltouw
Contrast Foundry · Egor Golovyrin · 2023
A modular stencil typeface by Egor Golovyrin drawing on maritime industry aesthetics, available in four stencil grades plus a variable font axis controlling stencil openness.
About
Designed by Egor Golovyrin and released in 2023, CoFo Kabeltouw is built from a limited set of modules referencing shipping containers, cargo cranes, painted stencil lettering and metal pipework. Four static styles run from Solid 0 through Stencil 20, 38 and 56, with a variable font allowing continuous adjustment of stencilness to suit scale and context. The family covers Latin, Cyrillic and Greek, operates entirely in all-caps, and includes a generous range of alternates to compensate for the absence of lowercase.
Classification
A modular, all-caps stencil typeface with an industrial and maritime character; classified as display due to its strong visual identity, reduced character set and stencil construction that limits continuous text use.
