KAPITAL Font

Kapital is an elegant capital sans serif font family by Superfried that has strong geometric influences. This typeface comes in two distinctive styles: There are two types of fonts: the standard and the stencil. It is available in four different weights: The font contains four styles: light, regular, medium and demi, and 346 glyphs.

The capital set of the previous typeface release, Basik, serves as the base for Kapital. The Kapital idea upgrades Basik’s minimalism and takes it to the next level of minimalism and simplicity. This kind of control effectively keeps every character in the background while delivering the writer’s message to the viewer’s eye.

Special attention was paid to the consistency of the glyphs’ shapes across the weights. On many occasions, when typefaces become heavier, they differ greatly in shape and design from the normal versions. So, Kapital font solves this by having a relatively high level of form similarity across all the different weights. Also, the treatment of the voids was given a lot of attention. Some degree of negative space is unavoidable; however, the designers made suitable modifications to the letterforms to reduce the phenomenon and attain a more harmonious design throughout the typeface.
