KOPYME

Diagonals crash through the baseline into a fourth underground grid level

KOPYME is a brutalist, monospaced typeface with monolinear strokes and extra-wide proportions, available through Swiss Typefaces' Lab testing space. It draws on a Swiss lettering tradition rooted in Walter Käch's 1930s–40s work and Max Miedinger's Haas Horizontal. The design introduces top-heavy letterforms with angular terminals and diagonals that breach the baseline, extending the grid to a fourth underground level. Five OpenType stylistic sets add fat underlines that creep into open counters, cap-height fills, solid rails, negative-mode inversions, and stripe-shredded treatments.
