Kaneda Gothic specimen from Dharma Type

A geometric sans built on woodtype-era gaspipe letterforms, sharpened for contemporary headline and logo use.

About

Taking the proportions of woodtype-era gaspipe gothics as its starting point, Kaneda Gothic tightens the curves and sharpens the lines for high-impact display settings. Seven weights with matching italics cover the full range from delicate to heavy, making it workable across headlines, captions and title sequences. The design positions itself between retro-industrial feeling and present-day graphic clarity, without committing entirely to either.

Classification

Described explicitly as a geometric 'gaspipe' gothic rooted in woodtype-era forms, refined with sharp curves; fits squarely in the geometric sans-serif category with display-weight sensibilities.
