Font very heavily based on Parisian metro station names that are set in tiles very similar to Fontstruct's bricks, mostly along line 12.

Notably: Sèvres-Babylone, Jules Joffrin, Notre-Dame-des-Champs, Pasteur, Volontaires, Abbesses, Solférino, Trinité-d'Estienne d'Orves.

This typeface is based around the word SYSTEMATIC. Systematic is something that is acted upon according to a set plan. The main inspiration for this typeface has come from Harry Beck’s London Underground Map. First published in 1933, Beck's map has now been used to show many different transport routes for different cities across the globe. The typeface itself is very angular and includes very little curves throughout. Although the letterforms aren’t reflective of any geographical locations, each letter reflects both the stations and the railway lines from Beck’s map.

Made this font for a laugh. It's bold and straightforward. Loud-spoken and refined. Lol

Pure minimalist font, just 1x1. I don't like the numbers, but then it's minimalist. The I still annoys me, since it's further spaced from other glyphs. Inspired by my first font 'Karmink'.

As a font geek, I was quick to notice the lettering on the segmented signs used by the San Francisco Muni Metro trains. I thought, it would be cool to have a font of that. And I know the perfect tool to build it with.

This font is an attempt to create something that harks back to the 1950's and/or 1920's. I love the differing x heights, the mono weight, and the tall/skinny fromat.
