This sharp-edged, industrial design from the hand of Richard Lipton was initially inspired by the logotype of the Shimano bicycle company.

Shimano Square and Shimano Round are each drawn in four styles, light & black for wide & narrow widths.

Shimano provides starkly geometric images in contrasting combinations of weight and size, intended for logos, posters, advertising display, and covers for books and records.

Among other uses, Shimano is recommended for Book and Corporate use.
