Based on the same grid as NCD PSMagazine, but with 90% of the glyphs changed, thus creating something a little more original and versatile. This is the Bold version, plans for Regular and Light are on the table. Please check my alternative 'a' & 'e' in the scroll down. I'm still not 100% which ones work best. I used the 1st 'a' and the last 'e' originally but changed them at the last minute. I'd love to know what everyone thinks.

The whole family looks very professional, Phusion Bold is no exception. The alternative a,e: in both cases the last one looks the best to me. 10/10

I'd definitely have to agree with Frodo on the alternatives. Excellent stuff as usual.

What a fabulous achievement this is. That slight downward join in the l/c k crossbar is a masterful bit of finesse. The inward lean of the bowls in the cap B. And a convincing X!

Really nice font !!! Perhaps the g and y should have a little more space between lower part and higger part ? i don't know this is beautifull however !! 10/10 like Frodo7 should say !

Wow thanks guys, all your comments are really encouraging and they're the first thing I check in the morning.... before I've even had breakfast. :-) @Intaglio You have the eyes of a hawk. I also love the l/c k. I tried the same on the upper case, but somehow it didn't quite work as well. @Zen_Killa, hello. That has been bothering me, and I agree it would look better, but I decided against it, as this is the Bold version, and the heaviest it will go - the Regular and Thin versions both have a wider gap. It was a tough decision to make, and it does limit the amount of weights I can produce for this font, so I may still change it, after extensive usage testing.

The question remains which 'a' & 'e' combo works best for you?

Great stuff nippa - looking forward to the other weights. My vote on the a & e is also 3

Due to popular demand Example 3 is the winner with a score of 4-0. I've changed it to the Original a & e
