Performance Across Mediums: What Actually Works

Logo design & brand identity: Excellent for primary marks where brevity and attitude matter—think one-word names, acronyms, or stylized initials. Avoid stacking or wrapping; Cybrogpunk prefers isolation.
Packaging design & product labels: Strong on premium, limited-edition runs—especially for audio gear, collectible figures, or niche software boxes. Pair with ample negative space and monochrome backgrounds to let the type dominate.
Social media graphics & digital ads: Highly effective in static banners and Instagram story headers—but only for 1–3 words. Never use it for CTAs like “Shop Now” unless irony is part of your brand voice.
Printable design & Canva templates: Works cleanly in PDFs and high-res PNGs, but avoid thin strokes in low-DPI prints. Always export at 300dpi and preview rasterized.
Mechanical craft projects (Cricut, Silhouette): Cut cleanly at 18mm+ height. Smaller than 12mm risks lost detail in inner joins—test with your blade depth and material first.
Web design: Use only as an h1 or hero banner type. Load it as a variable font if possible—its optical sizing options help maintain presence across viewports.

Practical Designer Notes (Not Suggestions—Non-Negotiables)

Test Cybrogpunk in black and white first—no gradients, no glows. Does it retain character? Yes. Does it still feel intentional? If not, step back.
Check readability at actual usage sizes: 36pt on a 27" monitor, 48pt on a phone screen, 14pt on a printed business card (if used minimally).
Try it on real mockups—not just Photoshop layers. Print a flyer. Stick a sample on a product box. Hold a Cricut-cut version in natural light.
Compare uppercase vs. lowercase rigorously. Cybrogpunk’s lowercase has tighter spacing and slightly reduced x-height—great for compact branding, less forgiving in mixed-case headlines.
Review spacing manually. Kerning pairs like “AV”, “To”, and “Wa” need attention—some defaults feel cramped. Adjust in Illustrator or Figma before finalizing.
Test font pairing across categories: set a paragraph in a serif font, then a headline in Cybrogpunk. Then swap in a handwritten font—see how quickly tone collapses. Then try a fellow display font (like Orbitron or Rajdhani)—note where Cybrogpunk asserts dominance versus blending.
Confirm commercial licensing *before* any client deliverable. Cybrogpunk is a premium font, and its license explicitly restricts embedding in SaaS platforms or reselling as part of editable Canva templates without extended rights.
