About Squada One

Squada One is a condensed display typeface built from straight stems and rounded-rectangle bowls. In the specimen the strokes are heavy, counters appear as narrow slots, terminals are cut flat, a is single-storey and the figures follow the same squared construction. The official description stresses its strong presence and geometric, condensed form, and presents it as a face for web pages. Squada One has a single static Regular style and no italic. Its character set is small: 192 glyphs, covering basic Latin and the Western European accented letters. The coverage data shows no curly quotation marks and no en or em dashes, and French lacks the ligature œ and the rare capital Ÿ. Joe Prince is named as designer in the record and the name table, and the copyright notice belongs to Admix Designs.

Where Squada One works

Web page headings
The description aims Squada One at web pages, where its narrow, heavy letters fit large headings into limited width.
Sports and gaming graphics
Squared bowls and flat terminals give scores, team names and titles a blocky, engineered look.
Banners and buttons
Condensed letters keep a short call to action large inside a small box.
Poster titles
One heavy style is enough for a title line set over an image or flat colour.
