About
Designed by Berlin-based Zeitype for a poster promoting Dane Close's 'MIC' LP on Power Station Records, Rockbox carries the industrial and dynamic qualities of its musical source material. The family offers three stylistic variants — Regular, Slant and Backslant — alongside a wide set of alternates accessible via upper and lowercase keys. Suited to record covers, posters and editorial work where an angular, experimental tone is needed.
Classification
Rockbox is a display typeface with dynamic, industrial characteristics; its bold, geometric construction and multiple slant variants place it firmly in the display category, designed for expressive poster and editorial use.
