Geometric typography in white on a black background forming the word 'worldwide,' with a distorted

EN Marand is a project that started in 2016 as part of an academic exercise. The task was to design an uppercase alphabet using a single geometric module as the base. In this way, the main module was obtained, which is characterized by its 45-degree terminations.

Finally, after several revisions, the remaining glyphs were designed to make the font much more versatile, and also including the lowercase alphabet, numbers, symbols and some alternative characters for certain letters.

Marand is available here.
