F37 Bezier exposes what is often hidden, championing the nodes that connect bézier curves as a design element themselves.
The F37 Bezier font family is available in three styles. Two styles, Node Large and Node Small, give user control over impact of the nodes. When large, the nodes dominate the letter forms, leaving only an elusive glimpse of the actual glyph behind them. When the nodes are small they appear as a smattering across the letter forms. The third style, is the non-nonsense underlying sans serif, perfect as a text style accompaniment to the two node styles.

Interview
Tell us about the inspiration behind your collaboration with F37®×. If it was an unused concept, what was the potential use case for it.
This font concept originated from my experience with design programs like Adobe XD. When a typeface is vectorized, each character's intricate bezier curves become apparent. As you zoom out, these curves expand, filling the space and altering the font's appearance. This phenomenon fascinated me, prompting me to ponder how we could translate it into a tangible font design.
When starting the process of creating your font, what typographic conventions did you look to break or experiment with? Or were there conventions of functionality you championed?
It was all based on observation and the talented type designers team of F37® made what we experience with the bezier being crazy to make a system of 3 weights and really playful but also functional
Now that your typeface has launched, what would be your dream project to use your F37® typeface on?
I would love to use in a book cover layout.
What have you learnt through developing and creating your own typeface(s) with our F37® type designers?
It is all about collaborating. What I saw and how it became was much more enriching since we worked together to shape this type from a simple and weird idea - love weird.
How would you describe your typeface in three words?
Dotty, Fun, Mutant
