Button by Richard A. Ware is a free techno display font built from heavy, squared strokes, blunt rectangular forms, and almost no stroke modulation. Its broad letters combine rigid verticals with softened outside corners, producing the unmistakable look of early desktop computer hardware and arcade cabinets.

Technology, gaming, and industrial subjects are its natural territory. It can give game title screens and electronic music posters a sturdy retro-digital voice, and its blocky construction also suits control-panel labels. Merchandise and event graphics benefit from the same button-like geometry, which connects all of these uses to switches, displays, and machine interfaces.
