@MauriceMeilleur@typo.social @benkiel@typo.social Possibly this one? Different material and construction. But it was interesting to see that the problems we addressed for the UvA library are… indeed real. The all caps design only facilitates languages without diacritics. The horizontal strokes merging with the ledgers does not help legibility at all. Loadbearing letterforms might sound conceptual but it probably was a headache. And the interaction between the lines creates issues for spacing. Otherwise very grateful it does not feature golden eagles. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama_Presidential_Center
