Author's note

Dirty Flamingo by Defaulterror is a free modern display font with a sleek, urban rhythm. The letters mix soft rounded bowls with sharp cropped corners and pointed cuts, giving the wordshape a slightly futuristic feel that is clean but not bland.

It fits naturally in music posters, fashion branding, nightclub flyers, app splash titles, and magazine cover lines where a free font needs a crisp contemporary edge. Use it for short headlines, logo lettering, or title cards - the clipped joins and curved forms give even a few letters enough attitude to carry the space.

While creating a logo for the "Digital Forum" I decided to make this font. I dig it. Apparently the logo I submitted never made it to the Forum even though both logos practically look the same. Uncanny...
