Some notes: Melor began as my idiosyncratic project of designing a curvy, squarish sanserif typeface. I wanted to design a full family but for various reasons it ended up with only regular and thin. There was also a plan for true italics but never realized. For now Melor is finally out there I want to take a break from type design, maybe I will work on a serif typeface, if there is time.

Eurostile was originally designed by Italian type designer Aldo Novarese, released in 1962. Eurostile Next is designed by Akira Kobayashi, Linotype's Type Director. The redesign of Eurostile "contains a rethinking of the fonts' accents and special characters", and found the following images very interesting.
I like the detached cedilla very much, it's a great step towards the minimalism of modernity. The change in angle is doubtful, I think that would give Eurostile Next more readability, but in setting text? I don't think so.

This kind of cedilla reminds of Verdana's. Noticed how the super curve is just a little bit more rounded? How subtle.

Found an interesting type experiment by Craig Ward on Behance today. Direct link to picture.
I especially like how he combined the letters Q and R together. L is so roughly cutted I almost didn't recognise it at first glance. G is very gracefully constructed. P seems very like a flipped L. R is very delicate, looks like a person dancing.

Just for the record, there is also skin type by Thijs Verbeek, and finger type by Lowman. I must add that I really like finger type.
