The Making of a Typeface
Rob Keller took almost three years to design the Vesper typeface. He chronicles the process in the article “The Making of Vesper” on the excellent blog i love typography.
Vesper began as a student project and was informed by Kellers’ fascination with the Devanagari alphabet and non-Latin typography. His experiments in Devanagari lettering and calligraphy are reflected in Vesper’s stylistic features.
