It finds itself on the expressive end of the spectrum – features like the low optical center and wide horizontal crossbars give it an unmistakable appearance. Tall, with broad shoulders, easily spotted from afar. Designed by Sláva Jevčinová and inspired by the lettering work of Czech designer Jaroslav Benda, a lesser known treasure of mid-century graphic design.
