Universum by JAF 34

Universum (opens in new tab) is a free font created by Prague-based graphic designer JAF 34 (opens in new tab). He wanted to create his own typeface based around the circle and variations on it, and here's the result.

JAF 34 says that Universum is suitable for posters and print design, and comes in OpenType and TrueType flavours. While it's free, JAF 34 suggests you might want to make a donation if you like it.
