About the family


Checkpoint is a display typeface family that was inspired by the lettering on the historic border hut at Checkpoint Charlie in Berlin.

A condensed sans, the letters aim to convey strength with a touch of softness brought by the rounded terminals. The modular form offers a strong vertical design that is well suited for applications in titles, headlines, or branding projects. With 14 styles and an extended character set that supports most Latin and Cyrillic-based alphabets, the family supports over 240 different languages.

About T-26

T26 Digital Type Foundry was established by Carlos and Sun Segura in 1994 to promote independent type design development and distribution. With award-winning promotional designs by its parent company Segura Inc., T26 has maintained its relevance with a dedication to the broader integration of typography with graphic design, fine art, and popular visual culture.Carlos had come from an 11-year career as Art Director, Creative Director, and Designer at many of the top advertising agencies in the country, and along with Sun Segura had already been running the Segura Design firm in Chicago since early 1991. This presented an opportunity to further the procedures, policies, and concepts which led to the initial creation of the T26 Digital Type Foundry.
