Bungee

David Jonathan Ross · 2016 · OFL-1.1

Bungee comes from the vertical signs bolted to the front of crowded city buildings, where the only space left is upwards, and it is drawn so a word reads as well stacked as it does across. That constraint decided the letterforms: round shapes like the O are flattened at the sides, diagonals like the A are straightened, and the L and the I are given serifs so a vertical column of letters keeps a clean left and right edge. Nothing else in this archive thinks about the problem at all.

You serve the file yourself. Nothing depends on this site staying up, and you get the whole character set — all Latin, Latin Extended, Turkish, Vietnamese.

Questions

Is Bungee free for commercial use?
Yes. Bungee is released under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which allows commercial use with no fee and no attribution requirement. You can use it in client work, in products you sell, on the web and in print. The one thing you may not do is sell the font file on its own. The licence is inside the download.
Can I use Bungee in a logo?
Yes. The licence covers the font software, not the artwork you make with it, so a logo set in Bungee belongs to you — including if you later register it as a trademark. You do not need permission and you do not owe anything to David Jonathan Ross. What the licence stops you doing is redistributing the font file itself as a product.
How do I install Bungee?
Download the zip and unzip it. On a Mac, select the 1 font file inside and open them, then press Install Font. On Windows, select them, right-click and choose Install. Restart any application that was already open before it will show up.
Does Bungee support Turkish?
Yes. Bungee includes the characters Turkish needs that plain Latin does not — the dotless ı, the dotted İ, and ğ, ş, ü, ö and ç in both cases. This was checked against the font file itself, not assumed from the fact that it covers Latin.
Does Bungee support Latin, Latin Extended, Turkish and Vietnamese?
Yes. Bungee covers Latin, Latin Extended, Turkish and Vietnamese, across 1,063 glyphs. Anything outside those alphabets is not included — the character map further up this page shows exactly what you get.
