Originally a custom face for Berlin feminist project space soft power, it has since been adapted for institutions including Haus der Kulturen der Welt and the dating app FEELD.
About
Developed in collaboration with Melissa Lücking, this geometric sans spans 21 styles across five weights, each available in upright, slanted, rounded and rounded-slanted cuts. The systematic multiplication of variants gives designers granular control over tone, from the sparest Ultra Light to a heavy Ultra Bold, with the rounded alternates softening its angular geometry. Its institutional clients suggest a typeface that can hold both sharp political identity work and more commercial applications.
Classification
A geometric sans with rounded and slanted variants throughout; the systematic alternates and angular construction place it firmly in the geometric sans tradition with a distinctly experimental edge.
