Anamorphe and Manoeuvre explore the perceptional phenomenon of perspective anamorphosis. Stretched out between graphic encryption, mannerist gimmickry and utilitarian necessity, these two families each indulges in their own aspect of intentional letter distortion.

Acrylic’s hyper-closed apertures make for captivating word images with a self-contained appeal desirable in logotypes and headlines. In body copy, it delivers a sober, yet accessible tone with an increasing degree of bureaucratic charm towards the monospace end of the spectrum.
Expressive variation is achieved using the implemented OpenType Stylistic Sets. The provokingly named Pervert Alternates (ss03) introduce the exaggerated overhangs and underbites reminiscent of Brasilia’s original design. The Pseudo and Mono families sport two additional Stylistic Sets rocking Acrylic’s rational foundation. The Skeptic Alternates (ss04) introduce “naked” variants for narrow glyphs, removing the artifice of serifs often found in monospace typefaces and creating an arhythmic, moderately awkward texture. Closing these unmotivated gaps, the Nihilist Alternates (ss05) promote another moment of irritation by inserting ridiculously chunky glyphs in place of the amputated variants…
