This a typeface designed to echo the shapes and patterns found across manholes which cover our network of systems across the UK. Manhole covers have been beautifully decorated with patterns but also act as indicators and safety features. Both patterns and the shaping of letterforms are inspired by manhole covers I have found. Designed to be a display typeface at large scales!

Who would have thought that manhole covers can inspire something so attractive. The detail of the decoration is surprising, it needs to be seen at large size. Glyph shapes remind me of 'phoenician' letters.
I don't know what to say but this is cool m8
I think you've translated the source inspiration into a digital format really effectively :)
