Author's note

BigBlocks by Chris Coombes is a free techno display font with broad, squared lettering and an unmistakable arcade-machine edge. Its near-monoline strokes, boxy openings, and abrupt cut-in corners give the alphabet a compact electronic profile.

Circuit diagrams and hard-edged interface graphics share its strict geometry, making it useful for game packaging, event posters, and electronic music artwork. In digital graphics, the letters can become part of a control-panel illustration or screen graphic rather than sitting apart as ordinary text.
