Specimen Polvora Regular
Note. Specimen of the typeface Polvora Regular. Copyright by Quique Ollervides.

Pólvora is an experimental typeface that boldly combines elements of mechanical typography with visual references to the imaginary of the Wild West. Its design is characterized by square finials and reduced contrasts, which gives it a firm, forceful and highly structured presence. From this base, Pólvora incorporates deliberate formal distortions and irregular modulations that reinforce its expressive and provocative character, distancing it from a purely functional interpretation.
