Typeface of the week

The latest release of Prague-based Displaay is the retail version of a typeface that was initially designed for a magazine about indie culture. Named after the magazine, Wallop consists of a sharp sans serif with vertical terminals, although it comes with several rounded alternate characters (for P, R, w, W, m and n) in case you’d like to add a bit of smoothness to your designs.
