Redefine Boldness with Swell: A Modern Geometric Powerhouse
Step into a new era of typographic strength with Swell — a fearless evolution of the legendary Kabel Black. This isn’t just a revival; it’s a transformation. Swell takes the classic backbone of geometric boldness and injects it with fresh energy, personality, and a modern edge. With crisp uppercase and fluid lowercase forms, bold proportions, and a meticulously crafted set of over 50 alternative glyphs, Swell is engineered for designers who demand authority without sacrificing style.
Master the Art of High-Impact Typography
Swell delivers a visual presence that commands attention. Its sharp, angular geometry and consistent stroke weight create an unrelenting sense of strength and precision. Every character is designed to stand tall, whether used in a logo, a poster, or a digital interface. The font’s modern reinterpretation of classic elements makes it feel both familiar and refreshingly new.
- Complete Character Set: Includes uppercase and lowercase Latin letters, numerals, punctuation, and symbols for seamless integration across all design projects.
- Over 50 Alternative Glyphs: Expand your creative palette with stylistic variations of key letters — from bold terminals to unique forms — for dynamic text treatment and visual flair.
- Stylistic Inspirations: Drawn from iconic fonts like Avante Garde (spatial elegance), Marvin (urban grit), and Blippo (playful intensity), Swell blends the best of modern geometric tradition with contemporary expression.
Unlock Expressive Design Possibilities
No two Swell designs should look the same. Leverage the alternative glyphs to create unique variations, subtle contrasts, or rhythmic patterns across headlines and branding materials. Use different forms of the letter “A” or “S” to introduce visual rhythm, or opt for more aggressive alternatives in key words to emphasize a message. This font isn’t just readable — it’s reactive, adapting to your creative intent.
Its geometric clarity ensures legibility even at small sizes, while its bold forms dominate large-scale applications like billboards, packaging, and editorial cover lines. Whether you’re building a brand identity or launching a bold campaign, Swell gives your text the weight and character it deserves.
Engineered for Modern Design Workflows
Swell is built to deliver in real-world environments. It’s available in industry-standard formats — OTF and WOFF2 — for seamless integration into Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, Sketch, web development projects, and mobile interfaces. The font’s clean OpenType features ensure consistent rendering across platforms and operating systems.
- TrueType & OpenType Support: Ensures stable performance and high-quality output in print, digital displays, and web applications.
- Variable Capabilities (Future-Ready): While currently released in a static weight, the design foundation supports future variable font expansion for on-the-fly adjustments.
- Scalable to Any Size: Maintains crisp, clean lines from mobile screens to giant outdoor signs.
Design Applications Where Power Matters
Deploy Swell where impact is non-negotiable:
- Brand Identity & Logos: Forge a memorable, bold presence with a wordmark that speaks confidence.
- Editorial & Magazine Covers: Dominate the newsstand with headlines that stop the scroll.
- Advertising Campaigns: Make your message impossible to ignore in print or digital media.
- Music & Fashion Branding: Match the intensity of pop culture with a font that feels bold and current.
- UI/UX Design: Use it for buttons, headers, and labels that require instant recognition and authority.
