A stencil-built geometric display face drawn from De Stijl's right-angle and 45-degree letter construction.

About

Architype 45/90 grew out of the De Stijl alphabets of Theo van Doesburg and Bart van der Leck, one built on strict right angles and the other opening that up to 45 degrees. The original was a physical stencil of twelve differently sized bars arranged to build each letter, drawn during a 2019 workshop on stencil typefaces with NORM at ECAL.
