Unigeo: A Vintage Tribute to Computing Design

Crafted by Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini with the collaborative efforts of Francesco Canovaro, Unigeo stands as a reverent homage to the design aesthetics of vintage computing. It immerses itself in the world of geometric modularity, ultra-tight tracking, and a kaleidoscope of striped rainbows. Unigeo's mission? To offer a fresh take on the enduringly useful geometric sans-serif style, infusing it with a nostalgic charm for chosen characters, all while preserving a sleek, modular appearance.

Much like the beloved vintage gaming systems of yesteryear, Unigeo boasts multiple "memory versions": 32, 64, and 128. The flagship Unigeo 64 family caters to display and logo design, boasting snug tracking and distinctive, iconic letterforms reminiscent of bygone eras of design and photo-lettering. Transitioning to Unigeo 32, the letterforms take on a more contemporary guise, creating a robust geometric sans-serif optimized for text legibility yet retaining its versatility for logos and displays with its broad weight spectrum.

And then, there's Unigeo 128, where the same foundational structure undergoes a transformation with a striped treatment, evoking optical art and the sleek, modernist logos of early computing. Each Unigeo family encompasses eight weights, spanning from Thin to Extrabold, totaling an impressive 40 styles. Moreover, every style includes an expansive character set accommodating Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek scripts. The typeface is enriched with full OpenType features, embracing positional numbers, ligatures, alternate glyphs, and even offering a variable font version for each subfamily.

In the realm of type design, Unigeo emerges not merely as a typeface but as a vivid narrative woven with the threads of vintage computing's rich legacy, inviting designers to embark on a journey through its meticulously crafted characters and endless creative possibilities.
