About Faster One

Faster One is a display typeface built on a heavy, wide italic sans serif. Each glyph has a fan of thin horizontal lines streaming from its left side, tapering to points, which the official notes explain as an image of wind meant to create an impression of velocity. The specimen shows no ordinary lowercase: small letters appear as reduced capitals, so mixed-case text sets as capitals and small capitals, and numerals and punctuation carry the same speed lines. The family has one Regular style and is not a variable font. It holds 428 glyphs for Latin and Latin Extended; according to the notes, a February 2023 update enlarged the glyph set and added fractions. The catalogue credits Eduardo Tunni, given as Eduardo Rodriguez Tunni in the name table, and the font is published under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

Where Faster One works

Racing and motorsport graphics
Speed lines behind slanted capitals suit event names, car numbers and kart-track signs.
Sports posters and jerseys
Heavy italic letters and digits carry team names and scores with built-in motion.
Delivery and courier promotions
A single word such as a service name gains a visual cue for quickness from the trailing lines.
Arcade and game titles
The effect recalls action lettering, which fits title screens and level banners.
