This is Futuracha Pro, a unique set of whimsical, weaving characters that change shape and interact as they form different words, and it’s almost ready for keyboards everywhere.
Høly, a team of designers based in Greece, launched Futuracha 5 years ago as an experimental font. The quirky letters came in raw form, and had to be arranged manually. Due to explosive popularity, Høly began designing Futuracha Pro, an Open Type version of the file that could be typed normally from any keyboard, featuring intelligent characters that change shape according to the letter sequence of a given word.
Futuracha Pro basically makes any word look like an Art-Deco masterpiece, and it’s slated to be complete in May. Høly’s Indiegogo campaign to crowdfund the font’s development was a smashing success, raising over 15 times their original goal of $4000. Backers, depending on their pledge, will receive a personal or commercial licence to use the font, as well as mesmerizing merch.

Share on FacebookHello guys! Glad to see futuracha on bored panda. I'm foivos from høly. Futuracha is quite decorative so suitable for display, limited extent text, logotypes, tattoos, decorations etc. You can find out more on the campaign that ends soon.
seems not that practical to me but could be used for single words or short messages on some hipster photos
It has actually a really nice art deco touch. Reminds me of the font used on the famous Le Chat Noir sign.
He he.. yeah... but I guess it's more suited for headliners on invitations and posters...
Load More Replies...How would I get it in the US? As a teacher of graphic design and the school yearbook, I love discovering new fonts and making posters in my room with unique fonts....
I find it super original and beautiful but I don't quite agree on those wide V, W and Y.
I'm in love with this. Hoe much will this font cost when it's released? Does anybody know?
Yes, this must be the first font that is not business-specific...
