Color Typeface Family for Shader
One typeface, three color-font realities: pixels, chrome, and glitch
Shader Color is a three-member color font family by Dalton Maag, designed in 2022 as a color-font expansion of the studio's existing Shader typeface. The family comprises Shader 16, with bright 16-bit pixel aesthetics; Shader 64, with a reflective chrome treatment; and Shader Glitch, which evokes digital corruption. Each variant ships with multiple palettes and a range of OpenType features across Latin script.
