KOPYME Again Stylistic Set "Empty"

A sneak peek at KOPYME was provided in Type Life #3. Readers of French specimen series La Perruque have seen it, too. Now we’re happy to announce that KOPYME is available from the Lab, our testing space for experimental fonts.

KOPYME is a brutalist typeface with monospaced characters of monolinear stroke width and extra wide proportions. With the emphasis on extended horizontals, it channels a specifically Swiss lettering tradition that harkens back to works by Walter Käch from the 1930s and 1940s, and also materialized in the Haas Horizontal typeface by Helvetica designer Max Miedinger. In a futuristic variation on this theme, we introduce disturbingly top-heavy shapes with angular terminals, see ‘C’ or ‘S’. KOPYME’s strongly horizontal nature is offset by diagonals that shoot across the glyph space like laser beams. In letters like ‘M’ or ‘Y’, they crash through the baseline, extending the underlying grid by a fourth underground level, and adding to the typeface’s kinetic energy.

You think this is fun? Wait till you’ve seen the OpenType extras. Switch on Stylistic Set 1 to pour a concrete base for your words: a fat underline that also creeps into the open counters. Activate Set 2, and all space above the cap height is filled up. Set 3 is a combination, with the characters locked between two solid rails. Change to Set 4: Here the center is filled and the letters are shown in negative. Only a few descenders manage to escape the dark mode. Last but not least, select Set 5 to see your words shredded by a stripe pattern – now you know how to typeset captchas in proper style.

The typeface has a full character set including upper- and lowercase, accented characters, punctuation, and arrows. The special features are available for basic letters (Aa–Zz) and numerals. For the time being, it comes in a single style – KOPYME, Again.
