Author's note

Sloba 18 by Nikola Kovanovic is a free Cyrillic display font with a modular, constructivist rhythm. The letters are built from heavy curved blocks, sharp horizontal cuts, and broad wedge-like feet, giving the whole font a carved, poster-era character that feels both geometric and a little ceremonial.

It fits graphic identities, cultural posters, album covers, title cards, and packaging where the shapes can do the talking; as a free font, it also makes sense for cover lines, short slogans, and monogram-like initials. The wide curves and abrupt notches give short words a strong cadence, so it works best when you let the lettering sit large and spare.
