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.
Inspiration: 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.
