Kilo Typeface

Kilo is a bubble font with no stems and barely a counter in sight: every character is a run of swollen blobs that fuse where they touch, in the language of 1990s electronic-music logotypes. The strokes thicken and pinch along their length, the baseline dissolves under the weight, and a word ends up closer to a liquid mark than a line of type.

Both drawings ship together. Kilo is the original 2021 cut, looser and more uneven; HV Kilo V2 is the 2025 redraw, with cleaner joins and steadier weight across the alphabet. The typeface is free for commercial work at any scale, which puts it in the small group of no-strings display faces worth keeping in a working library.

Practical uses:

• Branding and logos — record labels, club nights, skate brands, drinks, studios.
• Poster and flyer design — raves, festivals, exhibitions, film titles.
• Merchandise — t-shirts, stickers, caps, tote bags, patches.
• Social content — profile logotypes, cover art, campaign headers, release announcements.
• Packaging design — drink cans, cosmetics tubes, snack bags.

Features:

• 2 files: Kilo (2021 original) and HV Kilo V2 (2025 update);
• single-case alphabet — uppercase and lowercase keys produce the same letterforms;
• punctuation & symbols;
• free for personal and commercial use at any scale;
