Paranoid is a project we’ve had going on the back burner for a while now, and we’re happy to announce its official public and FREE release. Collaboratively designed by Simon Carrasco, John Stuart and Kevin Yeun Kit Lo, Paranoid is a purely geometric display face developed as a contribution to, and subtle critique of, the still growing trend of bold, geometric and counterless typography. It can be used equally well to bring back the joy of cocaine clouded 80s dance parties or to express the ominous foreboding of inevitable nuclear disaster, a flexible face in spite of its limited form.

Since none of us are by any means professional type designers, we make no claims to a complete and error-free typeface here. However, Paranoid does include a complete uppercase and lowercase (small caps with proportional stroke widths) letter set along with some essential punctuation, lovingly, if not professionally, kerned.

Paranoid is offered 100% free of charge, but please contact us before using it in any commercial setting.

We’d be really interested in any feedback, and if anyone has the time/energy to correct any bugs or wants to develop the numerals or other missing glyphs, please do get in touch.
