Inspired by masonry and available in eight heights–each version growing approximately 25% taller than the previous–Cinderblock is a brand new typeface designed to achieve maximum vertical coverage.
The ultra-thin white spaces within the letterforms create a spatial rhythm between letters and counters, and the extreme contrast between positive and negative spaces allows letters, sentences and paragraphs to stack together like a wall of cinder blocks when typeset carefully.
The brainchild of graphic designer Stefan Kjartansson, who previously brought you Black Slabbath and Cumulus & Foam, Cinderblock is delivered in OpenType format.
