Author's note

Relief Grotesk Extended by Typographer Mediengestaltung is a free extended stencil display font with an austere architectural build. Its extremely wide capitals combine thin upright strokes with broad horizontal bars, broken joins, and abrupt slab-like ends.

Posters are its most convincing setting, especially for exhibitions or electronic music events that benefit from lettering resembling a cut metal sign. The same industrial geometry suits album covers, fashion branding, and venue signage, linking each use through severe proportions and deliberate gaps.
