I love this kind of fonts so small, with only a few bricks in the heart. "The essence is always sent in a small jar", says the proverb. Hope you like this.

Very nice, I like simplicity. 10/10

Comment by cablecomputer 8th october 2011

Really cool u/v distinction! Sort of unintuitive; incredible that it works. 10/10 just for that ;)

The essence sings like blowing across the bottle opening! This design could be “expertized” into a nice range of weights going all the way into fat face territory.

I sense a certain intaglio feel about it. I dig the u/v distinction on a conceptual level. Brilliant, yet the v is too clever for its own good to the point of being illegible. You may want to revisit that one. I am not sure what is going on with some of the diacritics. But they can be tricky , indeed, with such stylish limitations.

Two different opinions on the v. V/v do read in many cases (therefore not completely illegible), but becomes an uncomfortable point of ambiguity to my eyes. Everything else is so natural, the headiness of the solutions breaks the work flow.

...though, maybe I am wrong! More opinions on the subject?

@cablecomputer and @CMunk and @will.i.ૐ: Thanks for your kindly comments, but I am with will.i.ૐ in some certains aspects about the legibility of the "V/v". I'll work on it a little more... but I can not resist to make they differents for one day at least!
