Exposit specimen from Tightype

A stencil display typeface developed from Joseph A. David's 1876 grid-based lettering system, with interchangeable amplitude, width and stretch settings that shift the tone from calm to turbulent.

About

Built on the logic of David's 'Plaque Découpée Universelle', Exposit treats its stencil origins as a live design variable rather than a fixed aesthetic. Stroke lengths, letter widths and rounded forms can be adjusted to produce uniform, restrained setting or something far more expressive. The family runs across five weights plus contrasted Positive and Negative styles, backed by an extensive ligature set and three stylistic sets that offer further structural alternatives.

Classification

Derived from Joseph A. David's 1876 stencil system 'Plaque Découpée Universelle', Exposit is a display typeface with structural stencil logic and variable letterform expression driven by amplitude, width and stretch parameters.
