About the family


Condemned is a distressed condensed sans serif inspired by damaged lettering found in early twentieth-century specimen books and vintage rub-off transfer type. The design recreates the imperfect character of worn print surfaces and poorly transferred lettering, giving the typeface a gritty, unstable personality while remaining surprisingly readable. The font includes a complete alternate core character system that allows text to subtly randomize as you type. Contextual alternates automatically switch between standard and alternate glyphs for capitals, lowercase, and numerals, creating a natural distressed rhythm without repeating shapes. The effect echoes the unpredictable textures of aging ink, deteriorated signage, and weathered ephemera. Condemned contains an expansive multilingual character set with hundreds of glyphs supporting Latin-based languages, along with punctuation, numerals, and extensive alternate characters. The result is a typeface ideal for distressed poster typography, horror design, vintage military graphics, weathered packaging, underground music artwork, and any project that needs controlled typographic decay.

About Grype

Grype began as a grunge type outfit for a short-lived time under the independent designer Charles Leroux. It was acquired by Astigmatic (AOETI) in 2016 and has since transitioned under the team of Brian J. Bonislawsky and Jim Lyles into a type foundry that produces font families inspired by corporate, band, and other logotypes and branding. And we still have retained some of the early pepperings of grunge typography from the library to boot.Grype expands on branding logotypes and makes them into full fledged type identity kits.
