OCCUPANT FONTS

Tick & Tock
Tick and Tock reflect Cyrus Highsmith’s long love affair withstencils as well as modular alphabets. Tick came from cutting
paper and includes a randomizing feature that gives words anatural handmade appearance. It comes in only one weight but
it gets the job done when you need a word or two to attract thereader’s attention. Tock is the mechanized version of the kitof parts established in Tick. It would be at home on a Bauhaus
poster or on the side of a bulldozer. Like Tick, it comes in just one
mighty weight.
