Karopapier

by Nils von Blanc · Website

Karopapier is a heavy, condensed display face from Nils von Blanc with blocky, tightly packed letterforms and a small-caps structure that gives everything a uniform, poster-ready presence. The name translates to "graph paper" in German, and there's something of that grid-locked discipline in how the characters sit: dense, squared off, and unapologetically bold. Built for headlines and large-format work where sheer weight is the point.
