A mesh-line display typeface from 2002 that becomes legible only when viewed at a distance, designed for large-format print applications.
About
YWFT OverCross constructs its letterforms from an overlapping grid of lines that appears visually complex and unreadable at close inspection, yet resolves into clear type when viewed from afar. Originally completed in 2002 and converted to OpenType in 2010, it suits large-format work such as posters, signage and oversized print. The font has appeared in magazines and on independent merchandise including T-shirts and postcards.
Classification
A display typeface built from an overlapping mesh of lines that renders letterforms illegible at close range but resolves into readable text at a distance, placing it firmly in the experimental display category.
