About the Kickdrum FamilyKickdrum is an experiment in transfusing Art Deco proportions, exaggerated swirls reminiscent of ’00s display faces, and the niche pop-cultural trend referred to as the “shoe diva” aesthetic.

The typeface’s curling terminals, spiral counters, and wide characters create a wild and energetic style. Throughout the typesetting, there is a rhythm blending curves and straightaways, reigning in the off-kilter approach found in 2000s display type for contemporary usage.

Kickdrum is of entirely unserious nature. It has a Veronica Mars: Season 1 sensibility. It’s the westernized “Parisian chic” of the ’00s modern girl, who rocks an Eiffel Tower lamp on her bedside table. The late-night dELiA*s magazine readers. The “Carries.”
