About this font

Bore is an all-caps display sans-serif font inspired by the mid-20th-century fabricated signage found above the entrances to the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel. Each side of the tunnel is called a bore, giving this typeface its distinctive name and industrial character. The letters carry a quirky but confident tone that works well in bold visual settings.

This font features clean uppercase letterforms with a slightly retro industrial feel. The geometric shapes and even stroke widths create a strong visual presence that commands attention. Bore is well suited for posters, headlines, logos, and signage projects that need a vintage industrial touch.

Designers looking for a typeface with personality and historical roots will appreciate what Bore offers. It pairs nicely with simple body text fonts and brings a unique voice to packaging, branding, and editorial layouts.
