We're excited to announce a new member to our font family: Geist Pixel

It's a display typeface family featuring five unique pixel-based variants, each with a distinct visual style. It is designed for decorative use in headlines, logos, and other display contexts where a pixelated aesthetic is desired.

It includes five distinct variants, each exported separately:

Export CSS Variable Description
GeistPixelSquare --font-geist-pixel-square Square pixel shapes
GeistPixelGrid --font-geist-pixel-grid Grid-based pixel pattern
GeistPixelCircle --font-geist-pixel-circle Circular pixel shapes
GeistPixelTriangle --font-geist-pixel-triangle Triangular pixel shapes
GeistPixelLine --font-geist-pixel-line Line-based pixel pattern
import {
  GeistPixelSquare,
  GeistPixelGrid,
  GeistPixelCircle,
  GeistPixelTriangle,
  GeistPixelLine,
} from "geist/font/pixel";

This version introduces a redesigned Cyrillic script for all Geist and Geist Mono styles.

What's Changed

Note
To better support different types of users, coding ligatures are no longer enabled by default. They have been moved from contextual alternates to an optional Stylistic Set. If you rely on coding ligatures, enable Stylistic Set 11 in your editor or terminal.
