SB Raster is a blocky, bold, rectangular typeface with square pixellated corner details reminiscent of early videogame graphics. SB Raster has a strong retro flavour and works well at large sizes and in strong colours alongside similarly strong, geometric graphics.
This is the SVG Color Font version of SB Raster, containing 50 font files covering 10 colour ways and 5 widths. Each font contains 219 glyphs. NOTE: Custom colours are available on request.

This capitals-only typeface started life as an extended pixelfont but as the design developed, it morphed into something with a more retro-digital arcade feel. The resulting typeface is well suited to anything related to retro computing, 8-bit consoles and game graphics. Its heavy, wide letterforms give it impact and it is best suited to display and headline use, perhaps on posters or as part of a logo.
