Poltik: Retro reinterpreted

Welcome to the TypeTogether time machine, where “What if” becomes “Check this out!” And to answer the question, “What if we reinterpreted stylised numerals from 60 years ago as a modern typeface?” is 2023 Gerard Unger Scholarship winner Patrycja Walczak.

We are proud to announce she has released Poltik as her first family, and it has a lot to offer. The two display styles are worthy of posters and storefront names in every way. The ten text styles play off the display with their reversed contrast, willing restraint in lighter styles, and boisterous attitude in heavier styles.

Cheeky, funky, and reliable on any screen or page, Poltik can cover the spectrum. But enough chit-chat. We’ve arrived at your retro destination and it’s time to feast your eyes on something worth its aesthetic weight in gold.
