Introducing TT Octosquares—a confident and stylish display font by TypeType!
TT Octosquares is an octagonal sans serif with futuristic traits. It’s an expanded and significantly enhanced version of our first commercial typeface, TT Squares. We gave TT Octosquares much more functionality and a fresher, more relevant look.
This typeface stands out for its geometric and distinctively “mosaic” appearance: it looks as if it is pieced together from various elements, which is clearly visible even in the tiniest details. At the stage of perfecting the glyph contours, we refined all the brackets, added distinctive junction forms and noticeable crossbar joints, removed sharpness from the triangular letterforms, and cut all the sharp terminals.
TT Octosquares truly shines in large and medium point sizes: by increasing the size, you can unravel the font’s edges and traits that make it look very unusual. However, the typeface stays readable in smaller point sizes and acquires a more minimalist look. This font is a perfect choice for projects in architecture, design, fashion, technology, and more. It will look equally captivating on a scientific journal cover or a techno-party poster.
The typeface features a variable font with three axes of variation: weight, width, and slant. This allows designers to create unique combinations and adapt TT Octosquares to suit a wide variety of tasks. Besides, the typeface has numerous stylistic alternates, ligatures, old-style figures, circled figures, and a slashed 0.
TT Octosquares includes:
- 4 subfamilies: Compressed, Condensed, Normal, and Expanded;
- 72 font styles and one variable font;
- 825 glyphs in each font style;
- 35 OpenType features;
- 210+ languages support.
