Author's note

Fair 'N' Square by David Kerkhoff is a free geometric techno display font built from rigid rectangular strokes and abrupt openings. Its tall squared letters resemble segments cut from an electronic panel, with narrow gaps interrupting otherwise solid forms. Every curve has been replaced by a corner.

Grid-based illustrations and circuit-like patterns can extend its right-angled logic through posters, game graphics, and technology branding. The compact industrial silhouette also suits electronic music merchandise and event signage, where the lettering can suggest a machine-cut label or control panel. Repeating the rectangular gaps as frames, icons, or panel divisions lets the type become part of the artwork rather than a separate caption.
