Author's note

Carbon stands as a monument to typographic brutalism, a unicase typeface that has been shaping the landscape of graphic design since the dawn of the millennium. Its refined modularity and distinctive capsule forms challenge conventional notions of letterforms, offering designers a powerful tool to craft headlines that command attention and provoke thought.

This typeface doesnt just speakit shouts, whispers, and everything in between, thanks to its spectrum of seven weights. From whisper-thin to thunderously bold, Carbon provides the flexibility to fine-tune the visual volume of any message. The inclusion of italics adds another layer of nuance, allowing for subtle emphasis or dramatic contrast within a single family. But Carbons true genius lies in its two special effect styles, elevating it from mere typeface to design superpower. These unique variants open up a playground of possibilities, enabling creators to infuse their work with an extra dose of visual intrigue that sets it apart in a crowded media landscape.

Carbons linguistic versatility matches its design flexibility. Fluent in a vast array of Latin-based European writing systems, it speaks the language of impact from the fjords of Norway to the plains of Hungary. This expansive language support ensures that Carbons brutalist beauty can resonate across cultures and borders.

Choose Carbon when you need typography that doesnt just sit on the page but leaps off it, grabbing viewers by the eyeballs and refusing to let go. Its for designers who understand that in a world of whispers, sometimes you need to SHOUT. With Carbon, every headline becomes a statement, every logo an icon, and every design a bold declaration of visual intent.
