Amilias did so, and, lo! he fell in two halves; for the sword had cut sheer through the vaunted war-coat, and cleft in twain the great body incased within.

The master, Mimer, sheathed his sword, and walked slowly down the hillside to the plain.

I see you, I know you're here. Behind every tree. Behind every stone. Your love shields me.

Be kind — so they said. As we are but shooting stars in the wind. A breath of life, a whisper in the mist. O for so long have I wanted for this.

There will be text & There will be words. But there won't be any sound. Only the ones you wish for: those you hear in your heart. Those you feel in your soul.

The rain dries. The tree grows. Deep roots — in the marsh. I hide in plain sight the secret knowledge to our heart. For you to be a witness to me up until the end.

Long & Dark days are ahead. Fear not. We are together, hands in hands, until the end of the world. The walls may crack and the roofs may tear away. We are here to stay.

I see you. There is still your smell in the house. I hear you calling me "my son" after a long trip in the woods. I remember every moment. Would you be proud now? Would you turn your face away?

Information

Collapse is an austere and melancholic condensed serif, crafted with an air of stark pessimism. Loosely inspired by the iconic serif typeface seen in the opening titles of Neon Genesis Evangelion, it draws upon the haunting atmosphere of that series while quickly diverging into something more expressive, more severe.

This typeface embodies a tension between restraint and rebellion, its sharp edges and compressed form evoking an unsettling beauty. Collapse plays with the contrast between elegance and intensity, making it ideal for projects that demand both sophistication and a sense of underlying urgency.

From its lighter weights, which whisper with a delicate elegance, to the heavier, more aggressive strokes that command attention, Collapse offers a versatile range of moods. Whether used to capture the quiet, somber undertones of a reflective piece or to evoke a harsh, almost confrontational sense of alertness, this typeface doesn't merely convey words; it communicates emotion. Each letterform feels both rigid and fragile, as if balanced on the edge of collapse, perfectly reflecting the themes of transience and entropy.

Ideal for editorial work, posters, or titles that demand a bold and evocative presence, Collapse is more than just a font—it’s a statement, a reflection of the delicate balance between structure and decay.
