CONCEPT:
Balcony is a display type family inspired by motifs of metal safety grills. The primary purpose of the type family is to create a grill-like pattern when letterforms are placed together. The best way to use this typeface is without leading, as shown in the visuals. The family comes with four weights (Thin, Light, Regular, Bold) and two stylistic sets including dingbats. It supports Western and Central European languages.
