+ In the crowded urban environment, space for signage is always at a premium.
+ From crummy liquor stores to majestic theaters, sometimes signs have nowhere to
+ go but up.
+</p>
+<p>
+ Bungee is a font that celebrates urban signs that stack the Latin alphabet, one
+ letter on top of the other, in order to make dramatic use of limited space.
+ Following their lead, Bungee typesets horizontally <em>and</em> vertically, so
+ it is always ready to take your text in a new direction.
+</p>
+<p>
+ Bungee’s letterforms were designed to reinforce a sense of verticality. Round
+ characters like <strong>O</strong> and diagonal characters like
+ <strong>A</strong> are straight-sided, and letters like <strong>L</strong> and
+ <strong>I</strong> gain serifs in order to create vertical words with
+ well-defined left and right edges.

+<h4>Bungee’s color fonts</h4>
+<p>
+ Bungee was an early
+ <a href="https://www.economist.com/babbage/2013/08/22/over-the-rainbow"
+ >experimental color font</a>, and has been updated as color font technology
+ has developed over the past decade. Both Bungee Tint (flat colors) and
+ <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Bungee+Spice">Bungee Spice</a>
+ (gradients) contain multiple color palettes, so it is possible to create
+ chromatic effects even in the most basic typesetting environments. Hopefully
+ these fonts will help designers and developers explore the possibilities of
+ what color fonts have to offer.

+ The Bungee project is led by David Jonathan Ross, and thanks to support from
+ <a href="https://fonts.google.com">Google</a> and

+<p>
+ In 2023–24, Marte Verhaegen and Just van Rossum produced a major revision (v2),
+ which includes an automated build process as well as many enhancements to the
+ vertical features and color fonts.
