You'll either love or hate this experimental new font by typographer Santiago Oritz, which can be manipulated in a range of unusual ways.
Created by typographer Santiago Ortiz, Typode isn't like any other font you've seen before. He's decided to make his typeface a little less rigid than the usual offerings...
Twisty type
Typode's characters are defined by coordinate, which means you can skew, stretch and twist the font to your heart's content.
You can also do a bunch of hard-to-read tricks, which may or may not hinder its functionality.

Manipulate it
Creator Ortiz explains that Typode is a "simple font described with coordinates so it can be freely reshaped, distorted, or mapped. [I] created it to be used in certain information visualization contexts, in which text needs to adapt to specific shapes."
What the Typocode font looks like 'at rest'
The type design itself is based on basic straight lines, evoking a very rigid and geometric feel, but this allows for the points of each glyph to be manipulated.
