safe space to dislike coolvetica in
Posted: 2022-02-06 17:46:36
if you are unaware, coolvetica is a free font that looks a lot like helvetica bold but with some stunts thrown in. it's "the garry's mod font"
i hate it with a vengeance. just looking at that lowercase t gives me chills. the kerning gives me claustrophobia. why is q just a g that got fucked up
e: i dislike this font so much that i sometimes see regular helvetica and get a little upset before i realise that it's not coolvetica. one such event is what prompted me to make this thread
Coolvetica is a scratch-built, sans-serif typeface, inspired by 1970's American logo designs. This was an era where everyone was modifying Helvetica with funky curls, mixed-case and effects. Coolvetica recreates that 1970's custom display lettering look with really tight kerning and funky curls. The tails on the R and a have been left out to allow even tighter spacing. It certainly isn't intended for setting paragraphs of book text—Coolvetica is a pure display typeface, intended for big, funky headings and titles
