Font very heavily based on Parisian metro station names that are set in tiles very similar to Fontstruct's bricks, mostly along line 12.
Notably: Sèvres-Babylone, Jules Joffrin, Notre-Dame-des-Champs, Pasteur, Volontaires, Abbesses, Solférino, Trinité-d'Estienne d'Orves.
Something "fun". Inspired by the many journeys I've made and by train travels. And by my grandchildren's train toys. The angular design echoes small table tops we sometimes use to put the tracks on ...
UC is normal weight and is used in the sampler (font name). LC has some thicker lines for increased legibility although this font is only meant to illustrate concepts (travel, finding new ways, diversification etc) or for logos, shop signs, invitations and similar. Not simple enough for use in anything long or complex that has to be easily read.
Public transport & travel related icons. Most of these are designed to leave room above/below themselves for text while still fitting into a square canvas. So, they can more easily be used to create actual program icons, signs, etc.
