Turbeau specimen from Simple Bits

An all-caps retro-futuristic display face in three weights, inspired by Handel Gothic and the graphic language of 1980s television and synthesisers.

About

Drawn with curvy, near-monoline letterforms at Regular weight, Turbeau builds stroke contrast through Semibold and Bold to give heavier settings a more characterful presence. The family ships with Oblique cuts across all three weights, and a set of wormy alternate letterforms for M, N, W and several others adds a playful, period-appropriate eccentricity. Six styles in total, supplied as OTF and WOFF2.

Classification

An all-caps display face with curvy, near-monoline letterforms inspired by Handel Gothic and 1980s TV and synth aesthetics; increasing stroke contrast at heavier weights places it firmly in display territory.
