Designer's Notes

This is the 3nd version of this font, further refinements in glyph forms and kerning may still follow.

The concept was to create a font while avoiding any closed counters. Later on the counterpart with the closed counters is to be released as well.

Apart from open counters the font features rather high stroke contrast (therefore rather suitable for display texts than for body copy), and asymmetric serifs.
