Workhorse Geo Stencil
Workhorse Type Foundry · Adrian Kimball · 2021
A geometric stencil family designed across three optical sizes and eight weights, built to work alongside Workhorse Geometric for mixed display and text use.
About
Designed by Adrian Kimball in 2021, it addresses a common limitation of stencil typefaces by providing optical sizing across Min, Med and Max grades, making it usable at sizes from small text to large display. The family ships as a variable font with Weight and Optical Size axes, covering 19 static styles and 220-plus languages. A suite of stylistic sets offers alternate characters including flat-sided G, angle-sided M, sheared numerals and a side stencil option.
Classification
A geometric sans with stencil cuts across three optical sizes and eight weights; the stencil treatment and display orientation place it firmly in the display category, with geometric construction as its defining subcategory.
