From the foundry
AT Skanner is a sans-serif typeface with a retro high-tech aesthetic inspired by commercial cargo vessels, worn out VHS tapes, electric hoverbikes, and sci-fi user interfaces. Although predominantly geometric, it incorporates humanist features including a tapered 'K' arm and curved 'R' leg. Its squared off bowls allow for barcode-tight tracking while horizontal terminals suggest a plethora of ligatures, with 123 included in the typeface. Skanner comes in 12 styles for desktop, web, and app use, combining geometric precision with distinctive character.
