Author's note

Aguije Caiman by Ono Takehiko of aguije inc. is a free high-contrast sans serif with an eccentric editorial profile. Broad circular forms alternate with slim uprights, and several letters carry sharp, slab-like finishing strokes. The changing widths give each word a lively silhouette.

Its oversized curves and stark geometry can echo cut-paper illustration in magazine covers, fashion posters, and arts festival graphics. It also suits record packaging and boutique branding, with the same mix of elegance and oddness linking these different settings.
