Highground font - Say hello to new Highground font family designed by Winston Scully, Highground fonts release at Nov 13, 2017. Highground is the perfect titling font to complement text faces in magazines, logotypes, etc.
Highground is a fun typeface for your punk band to make shitty posters to hang on electrical poles around town.
Growing up playing DIY metal & punk shows was the inspiration behind this typeface. The Highground was a venue off of Veteran’s boulevard in New Orleans, LA that has tragically shut down. Highground the typeface is an ode to Highground the venue. It attempts to capture the punk & metal spirit of the venue and the feeling it evoked for my friends and I when playing and attending shows there.
Highground was developed over a year of attending Type@Cooper West ’16 in San Francisco. The early stages of Highground were inspired by Nicholas Jenson’s Rotunda. Highground still has a twinkle of that inspiration, but it has seen a dramatic shift in goals and aesthetic. A write up on the process will be on my medium account soon.
