Colonel
One stencil skeleton, three terminal personalities
Colonel is a stencil type family by Damien Gautier (205tf), released in 2010. It comprises three all-capitals series differentiated by terminal treatment—beveled (Cut), rounded (Rounded), or sharp (Sharp)—plus a fourth series that adds lowercase. Accent marks on the capitals were specifically designed for dense setting, making the family suited to titling and identity work.
