About Gridlock Font Family

A condensed font using constructivism history to convey the cold hearted steel of machinery and progress. Gridlock tries it's best to fit as much info as possible in a small space neatly in line and with the subtle curves and smoothness of bent steel. The inspiration for Gridlock actually came accidentally after designing some lettering for a self-promo project and it needed something that just was condensed with visual appear. So imagining about how condensed fonts feel, I imagined them being squished together just like cars in traffic are forced to work together to make it to their end destination.

About I Can Be Your Type

I Can Be Your Type was founded by recent Philadelphia University graduate Zachariah Nelson.

The driving force behind this conglomerates are people. Just like typefaces, people are individual. Typefaces are people too.
