The design draws from a multitude of influences. Specifically I was inspired by: mathematics, Japanese space-rock, the movie MOON (directed by David Bowie's kid), and the Funk King's wonderful molecular work here on FontStruct. The principle building block for the design is an obtuse angle segment that's cloned, reflected, and rotated to create an entire letter. Mapping the technique to the whole typeface was a challenge and there are some compromises (see D and U). As is frequently the case with these strict modular exercises the T is the stand out ugly duckling.Prog%20is%20a%20condensed%2C%20geometric%2C%20modular%20display%20typeface%20with%20a%20contemporary%20sci-fi%20aesthetic.%20The%20design%20draws%20from%20a%20multitude%20of%20influences.%20Specifically%20I%20was%20inspired%20by%3A%20mathematics%2C%20Japanese%20space-rock%2C%20the%20movie%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sonypictures.com%2Fclassics%2Fmoon%2F%22%3EMOON%3C%2Fa%3E%20%28directed%20by%20David%20Bowie%27s%20kid%29%2C%20and%20the%20Funk%20King%27s%20wonderful%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructors%2Ffunk_king%2Fpublic%2Ftags%2FMolecular%22%3Emolecular%3C%2Fa%3E%20work%20here%20on%20FontStruct.%0D%0A%3Cbr%20%2F%3E%3Cbr%20%2F%3E%0D%0AThe%20principle%20building%20block%20for%20the%20design%20is%20an%20obtuse%20angle%20segment%20that%27s%20cloned%2C%20reflected%2C%20and%20rotated%20to%20create%20an%20entire%20letter.%20Mapping%20the%20technique%20to%20the%20whole%20typeface%20was%20a%20challenge%20and%20there%20are%20some%20compromises%20%28see%20D%20and%20U%29.%20As%20is%20frequently%20the%20case%20with%20these%20strict%20modular%20exercises%20the%20T%20is%20the%20stand%20out%20ugly%20duckling.

Derived from the Latin verbal definition of amplify, meaning to enlarge, make greater, or stronger. An older fontstruction revised with new curves and angles to withstand scaling and scrutiny at larger sizes. No polygonal simulated bezier curves needed. So yeah. Go ahead and scale it as large as you want. I dare you.
