Lightspeed is a font that draws from the optimistic, dynamic movement of retrofuturism; art that represents the prospective future of the past. The typeface is constructed of 6 core modules celebrating the shape language of retrofuturism – sleek, streamlined curves pair with polished, sharp shapes to give the typeface an active and swift silhouette. Representing the awe-struck wonders of deep space and the dreams to rocket through it, Lightspeed is the typeface of yesterday’s tomorrow.
