In the crowded urban environment, space for signage is always at a premium. | ||
From crummy liquor stores to majestic theaters, sometimes signs have nowhere to go but up. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
Bungee is a font that celebrates urban signs that stack the Latin alphabet, one letter on top of the other, in order to make dramatic use of limited space. Following their lead, Bungee typesets horizontally <em>and</em> vertically, so it is always ready to take your text in a new direction. | ||
</p> | ||
|
||
<p> | ||
Bungee’s letterforms were designed to reinforce a sense of verticality. Round characters like <strong>O</strong> and diagonal characters like <strong>A</strong> are straight-sided, and letters like <strong>L</strong> and <strong>I</strong> gain serifs in order to create vertical words with well-defined left and right edges. | ||

The Bungee project is led by David Jonathan Ross, and thanks to support from <a href="https://fonts.google.com">Google</a> and <a href="https://fontbureau.com">The Font Bureau</a>, Bungee was released under the SIL <a href="http://openfontlicense.org">Open Font License</a>. | ||
</p> | ||
<p> | ||
In 2023–24, Marte Verhaegen and Just van Rossum produced a major revision (v2), which includes an automated build process as well as many enhancements to the vertical features and color fonts. | ||
