# The Metropolis Typeface
|
|
|
|
The Vision
|
|
---
|
|
To create a modern, geometric typeface. Open sourced, and openly available. Influenced by other popular geometric, minimalist sans-serif typefaces of the new millenium. Designed for optimal readability at small point sizes while beautiful at large point sizes.
|
|
|
|
The Plan
|
|
---
|
|
My current plan is:
|
|
|
|
1. Start with a 'regular' design (weight and width, as well as default metrics and glyph variations)
|
|
2. Design a 'black' weight at the above regular width to create instances at various weights
|
|
3. Start designing other widths or a light/hairline weight
|
|
4. Design 'rounded', 'slab' or other variations
