Snowden, Fontsmith Award for Best Original Type Design

  • Nuno Penas

‘Snowden’ is a contemporary display typeface inspired by the laptop used by Edward Snowden which had stolen secrets on the NSA and CIA that was smashed during his arrest. This revealed the dynamic lines and shapes of the circuit boards. The 3 different weights Light, Regular and Bold make the font more dynamic. This typeface won the Fontsmith Best Original Type Design Award in 2019.
