Hostage

by Woodcutter · Website

Hostage is a ransom-note style display face from Woodcutter, with each letter looking like it was cut from a different newspaper and glued down in a hurry. The mixed-case letterforms vary in size, weight, and style, creating that classic collage effect of mismatched characters that somehow still read as a cohesive word. Bold and deliberately chaotic, it works for headlines, posters, and packaging where you want something that feels cobbled together and a little unhinged.
