My first drafts revealed the direction I was heading. I wanted to create a flawless geometric, technical sans lowercase with a touch of calligraphic flair (there are some optical correction issues in the result, e.g. with the e). For the uppercase, I intended maximum style without sacrificing too much coherence – why lose any of the best bits?

Brush script, art deco, classic engraving, three genera of gothic (sans serif, blackletter, and ancient alphabet!), runic, hieroglyphic, and yet still some futuristic tendencies all informed me. But do they blend?

The handwritten quality of a broad-nibbed pen or skillfully wielded marker provides the binding agent. An emulsion of all these influences, it is at once all and none. Even the strict modularity begins to melt into the background.

A winning, small-matrix rendition of this super-elliptical monoline sans. If you’d like, please enjoy a private clone to tour the brand-spankin’ new interiors.
I embraced innovation at the expense of imperfection with faux-curve composite stacks. These custom bricks are used to resolve the most glaring proportion issues besetting version 1 (and 2’s) capitals. I risk intermittent aliasing as well as potential inconsistencies in both curvature and stroke contrast. Yet these composite-stack discontinuities (A,C,D,G,J,O,Q,S,U,V) marry unexpectedly well with the extensively used macaroni bricks and remain themselves smooth up to an impressive 72pt.
Manual kerning leaves a lot of room for improvement. The alternates are included mostly for curiosity’s sake. Another work in progress with samples to follow. Feedback is always very appreciated; thanks in advance for it! :)%3Cb%3EVersion%202.0%3C%2Fb%3E%0D%0A%3Cp%3EA%20winning%2C%20small-matrix%20rendition%20of%20this%20super-elliptical%20monoline%20sans.%20If%20you%E2%80%99d%20like%2C%20please%20enjoy%20a%20private%20clone%20to%20tour%20the%20brand-spankin%E2%80%99%20new%20interiors.%0D%0A%3Cp%3EI%20embraced%20innovation%20at%20the%20expense%20of%20imperfection%20with%20faux-curve%20composite%20stacks.%20These%20custom%20bricks%20are%20used%20to%20resolve%20the%20most%20glaring%20proportion%20issues%20besetting%20version%201%20%28and%202%E2%80%99s%29%20capitals.%20I%20risk%20intermittent%20aliasing%20as%20well%20as%20potential%20inconsistencies%20in%20both%20curvature%20and%20stroke%20contrast.%20Yet%20these%20composite-stack%20discontinuities%20%28A%2CC%2CD%2CG%2CJ%2CO%2CQ%2CS%2CU%2CV%29%20marry%20unexpectedly%20well%20with%20the%20extensively%20used%20macaroni%20bricks%20and%20remain%20themselves%20smooth%20up%20to%20an%20impressive%2072pt.%0D%0A%3Cp%3EManual%20kerning%20leaves%20a%20lot%20of%20room%20for%20improvement.%20The%20alternates%20are%20included%20mostly%20for%20curiosity%E2%80%99s%20sake.%20Another%20work%20in%20progress%20with%20samples%20to%20follow.%20Feedback%20is%20always%20very%20appreciated%3B%20thanks%20in%20advance%20for%20it%21%20%3A%29

The resulting display typeface accommodates tight leading and customizes easily in outline mode. Composite stacks yield the smallest matrix currently possible for this charming design. Though a more refined 2-times expansion is easy enough to imagine, economy of brick and scale lead to more efficient and exciting brick substitutions.
Don’t be a cog, try a clone and create your own variants! :-)
