Edifact is engineered decay—letterforms born in the age of magnetic ink and computer mainframes, then dragged through decades of ruin. Its shapes still carry the clean precision of their 1960s origins, but the surface tells another story: scorched grids, fractured edges, and mechanical scars that speak of collapsed cities and obsolete tech.
This is distressed typography with intent. Every scratch is mapped, every fracture guided, giving Edifact a distinct, technological texture that sets it apart from random grunge. Automatic ligatures allow you to customize the damage, creating authentic, varied distress that adapts to the mood of your project—whether it’s the chaos of an arcade meltdown or the quiet dread of a lost transmission.
Edifact thrives in dystopian film titles, synthwave album covers, speculative fiction jackets, industrial branding, and any design that needs to look like it survived the end of the world. Its character set spans Western, Central, and Eastern European languages, so the voice of ruin can be heard across continents.
Design in ruins—Edifact will make sure your message is the last thing standing.
