Author's note

Kuppel Extra-expanded Thin Italic by Kimmy Kirkwood is a free monoline handwritten display font with a spare, futuristic look. The letters stretch sideways through fine, uneven strokes and simplified curves. It feels drawn in one quick pass.

Its wirelike construction can echo technical line drawings or loose schematic illustration, making it useful for science-fiction posters and electronic music artwork. Fashion packaging and experimental branding also suit the long, low silhouettes and cool improvised finish. In editorial design, it can turn a cover line into part of a diagrammatic image.

The font is free for any use. If it is used in a commercial project and someone asks about the font, please reference me.
