The Protest Types began as personal project by designer Octavio Pardo to reflect on the shapes and voices of protest signs. So far it spans four font families (Protest Guerrilla, Protest Revolution, Protest Riot and Protest Strike), each with a different voice.
Protest Revolution expresses the furious and messy painted signs.
An import and novel design feature of the project as a whole: Strike, Guerrilla and Riot all share the same spacing and kerning. This means designers have the possibility to write a message, and then decide the level of passion (or anger) that they want to express that message with, without altering any line lengths or page layouts.
