28 PointType Design 






28 Point (2026)

Type Design 

Designed as part of the 28X28 Ritual  a day , A display type system built from a closed set of 28 modular shapes — circles, rounded rectangles, and their boolean unions — combined parametrically to construct each letterform. Rather than drawing each character by hand, 28 Point works like a constructive geometry problem: overlapping the base shapes generates the counters, terminals, and joins as emergent byproducts of the underlying grid, producing the sharp, star-pointed counterforms visible wherever two curves intersect (as in the O, R, or the 28-point mark itself).

The system spans a bold rounded Display cut for headline and numeral-scale use, alongside a dotted Reference weight that reduces the same 28-shape vocabulary to its most minimal expression — legible down to a pixel-level grid while staying structurally consistent with the display cut. Because every character is derived from the same finite shape set and combination logic, the typeface holds a consistent geometric identity across scales, from single display glyphs at 1000pt+ to full paragraph-setting at 28pt and below.
