Merde

Merde is a free sans serif font defined by a lanky, off-kilter rhythm that makes the lettering feel lightly stretched and hand-tuned. Steep diagonals, rounded bowls, and unusually tall uprights create a loose, slightly theatrical silhouette instead of a neutral sans texture.

That uneven vertical swing gives short titles a clear role on posters, indie zines, bookstore signage, album art, and arts-event flyers. Merde also makes sense for packaging and editorial pull quotes, where its narrow peaks and rounded forms keep the page graphic without turning into a full novelty font.
