AN EXPERIMENTAL TYPE FOUNDRY

Good type.
Bad conditions.

Expose letters to imaginary weather.
Keep the font that survives.

Not a filter. A real, installable typeface.
No account. No upload. No AI.

Perfect is a starting point.
The interesting part is what happens next.

A tiny foundry for posters, record sleeves, late-night ideas,
and other things that shouldn’t look like everything else.

MADE OF MATH.
FINISHED BY CHANCE.
A FOUNDRY, NOT A FILTER

Weather is the designer.
You set the conditions.

Typeweather turns a source alphabet into a new typeface using deterministic, procedural geometry. Ink spreads through a noise field. Erosion eats the edges. Roots grow along wandering paths. Signal loss displaces scan lines.

Each letter is sampled at 180 pixels per em, weathered, traced into closed contours, and compiled into an actual OpenType font. The specimen uses that same font. What you see is what you download.

100% localNo servers, accounts, trackers, or AI calls. Imported fonts stay on your device.
Repeatable accidentsThe same source, exposure, and seed make the same outlines. Copy a recipe to recreate an experiment.
Made for displayLatin letters, accents, punctuation, currency and symbols, with source pair kerning. Best large. Not a book face; complex-script shaping and variable fonts are not supported.
Open materialBungee by David Jonathan Ross; DM Serif Display by Colophon Foundry; Space Mono by Colophon Foundry. Bundled sources and derivatives use the SIL Open Font License.

Bundled-font exports include their original license in the font and a companion license download. For an imported font, you are responsible for permission to modify and redistribute it. WOFF/WOFF2 and variable-font axes are not supported.

BRING YOUR OWN MATERIAL

Your font. Your device.

Choose a static TTF or OTF font, up to 5 MB. It never leaves your browser.

Only import fonts you have permission to modify. A normal desktop font license doesn’t always permit making a derivative font. Custom-font recipes cannot include the font file.
