Super
The Designers Foundry · Michael Bagnardi
An all-capitals display pair from BurnType's Michael Bagnardi, channelling 1970s and 80s science fiction aesthetics through ultra-sharp, sleek letterforms.
About
Super comes in two styles, Eighty and Seventy, both built on a single all-capitals frame with razor-sharp details that reference the era of Sorayama, Frazetta and the NASA worm logotype. Discretionary ligatures for common pairings such as es, mm, rs and ks add typographic texture within the limited glyph set of 218 characters. Latin language support spans a broad range of African and European languages, making it more versatile than its narrow display brief might suggest.
Classification
An all-capitals display typeface with ultra-sleek, razor-edged construction explicitly referencing 1970s and 80s sci-fi and futurist aesthetics, placing it firmly in retro display territory.
