Oldschool Graphic
Kilotype · William Montrose · 2025
A sideways spin-off from Oldschool Grotesk by William Montrose, available in two extreme widths with interlocking terminals and reversed contrast.
About
Oldschool Graphic emerged from pushing the variable parameters of Oldschool Grotesk to their logical extremes and then beyond. The 100 width is severely compressed with a dense, patterned rhythm, while the 1000 width relies on interlocking letterforms and a lively play of shapes and counter-shapes. Reverse contrast and punch-hole details in the compressed cut give it a distinctly mechanical, stapler-adjacent character that sets it apart from its parent family.
Classification
An experimental display sans derived from Oldschool Grotesk, available in extreme compressed and ultra-heavy widths with reversed contrast, interlocking terminals and punch-hole details that push it firmly into display territory.
