Research

Our research began with the origins of the International Style, creating forms that could be expanded and adapted into new forms and shapes to encompass movement.

The International Style inspired this Font letterform inspiration. Foremost was the concept of a geometric sans serif typeface containing purposeful subtle design touches, details, and deviations, expressing the movement within a glyph set.

Project Duration

The font sketches were designed in March 2023 and produced May 2023, with the product launched July 2023.

Operation Flow
