Bad Type Club is an experimental type foundry established in 2017. The foundry specializes in creating innovative and unconventional typefaces, often drawing inspiration from historical and obscure sources. Some of their work revives lost type foundries, meticulously reconstructing digital versions from fragmented and decaying specimens. Other projects feature abstract and obscured designs, resulting in unique, displaced typefaces that challenge traditional aesthetics. Additionally, Bad Type Club produces fonts tailored for practical use, blending creativity with functionality. The foundry's diverse portfolio reflects its commitment to pushing the boundaries of typographic design.

BTC Peace

BTC Peace starts with a simple, almost unfashionable question: what if a sans serif stopped trying to be clever and instead tried to be useful in public? Not useful in the corporate sense of “clean” or “efficient,” but useful in the street, on a placard, in a PDF shared too many times to count. It’s a triple-weight utility sans, built to distribute information clearly and without apology. No whispering. No decorative hedging. Just legibility that holds its ground.

The forms are sturdy and direct, engineered for impact rather than personality theater. Each weight does its job, scaling from functional clarity to blunt emphasis without losing coherence. BTC Peace doesn’t aspire to be neutral; it aspires to be understood. It’s typography that assumes the message matters more than the typographer’s signature.

Its larger intent is where things get interesting. BTC Peace was created to live as a free, open-source typeface—available for protest, resistance, and anti-political campaigns of all stripes. It’s designed for the moments when the smallest voice needs to occupy the most space. In that sense, BTC Peace isn’t about style so much as amplification: a typeface that treats volume, visibility, and access as core design principles. It’s not here to sell you anything. It’s here to be read.
