Klynok (meaning “saber blade“ in Ukrainian) is a shapeshifting type system inspired by Ukrainian Cossack Baroque heritage.
Please follow me on Instagram to see some spoilers of this typeface in April/May 2025 and the first examples of Klynok in use. If you are a foundry or a platform, feel free to reach out to discuss a potential retail release.
This project received support from the SILICON Stanford Program and is a D&AD Awards 2025 Wood Pencil winner.
