Astro specimen from Smuss Type Kiosk

A geometric sans by Kristian Thorsen drawing on Bauhaus construction and sci-fi aesthetics, available in seven weights with matching italics and 13 stylistic sets.

About

Designed by Kristian Thorsen and launched in 2025, the family runs from Thin to Black with matching italics and a variable font axis covering the full weight range. Thirteen stylistic sets allow significant shifts in character — from rounded, clean forms through straight-cut and pointy variants to alternative lowercase letters and circled or squared figure styles. The breadth of OpenType options makes it suited to both functional text settings and more expressive display work.

Classification

The foundry classifies it as Geometric; the design draws on Bauhaus geometry and modular construction, with circular forms and a rational structure characteristic of geometric sans-serifs.
