Hello,
can anyone tell me what typeface is used in the banner for the Type Battle 25 typophile tee contest 2008? It’s the banner that scrolls around in the support our sponsors area, just off to the right.

That is a typeface that is currently proprietary to Punchcut. Currently we use it for comping device UIs (mobile device screens) but if I have my way it will become the Punchcut house face. Glad you like it.

Thank you Joe,
yes, I like it a lot. It has potential as a signage typeface as well, I think, judging from the characters I can see. I hope you consider releasing it commercially.

Interesting. Who drew it for you, Joe? Could we please see more of it?

Maybe it’s Christian’s in-progress Aperture.
