The repetition of simple geometric shapes forms a daily part of our environment. Throughout the 20th century – and into the 21st – typefaces whose designs have taken advantage of this have remained popular. But finding exactly the right mood can be tricky. For your convenience, we have grouped some of our favorite geometric typefaces (mostly sans serif and symbol) into four categories: circles, squares, ovals, and triangles.
German designer Ingo Preuss created the fonts Linotype Funny Bones™ (1997), and Linotype Scrap™ (1997).

Designer: Ingo Preuss, 1997
The Linotype Funny Bones™ Font Family is part of the TakeType Collection.
Linotype Funny Bones is part of the Take Type Library, chosen from the contestants of the International Digital Type Design Contests of 1994 and 1997. The font was designed by the German artist Ingo Preuss and is available in two weights, one and two. Linotype Funny Bones one consists of two different alphabets containing only capital letters and offers a variety of interesting combinations. The first set of capitals of weight One is somewhat light and delicate, while the second one is of a strongly constructed nature, which makes for a good contrast.

The carefully constructed details of the font detract from its legibility, but Linotype Funny Bones is perfect for short texts and headlines in point sizes larger than 12.
