Author's note

HFF High Tension from Have Fun with Fonts is a free industrial slab serif display font built from extremely narrow upright letterforms. Squared slabs and side notches suggest cut steel rails.

Packaging is a strong setting for its machine-made structure, especially on tool labels and energy-drink cans, and the same construction suits concert posters and promotional game graphics. Its severe verticals and engineered details will appeal most to designers working with industrial music, dark dystopian entertainment, or specialist workshop-themed brands.

Based on Bamberg from Circus Alphabets by Dan Solo.
