This project started when I found a photo with a street sign from Spain that said lampisteria. The letters were simple, geometric, and somehow they reminded me of my childhood years when I used to see similar letters on the shop facades of newly post-communist Romania. I did a little research on this type of letters and I found similar ones all over Europe, but especially in Italy, reminiscent of the Art Deco Era.

The final result is a colored typeface with an extended character set that can be used as a font but also to create patterns, or decorative borders.
