Production Technology
The font was first hand drawn and then developed in glyphs.
Research
Creating a Swiss-style font creates the challenge to develop a mechanical grid that is modular in construction allowing for slight variations to create form.
Inspiration
The inspiration for the font was taken from 19th-century Swiss typeface design aesthetics beginning with a mathematical grid. The idea was to create a highly legible and harmonious structure with the characters design, creating beauty and simplicity.
Project Duration
The Project was stated and completed in 2022
