Description:
"Samoa" is another bold typeface experiment where I used the filters (1.6). Looks striking to me although I´m not sure about Z, 4 and 7...How do you like it? Write a comment!

I like it a lot.
I would only change the & to look less like an 8 by not letting the upper arm/loop to touch the lower bowl, but you have the final word.
And that is quite an eye catching sample :)

Thank you, Cayo!
You can also use that quote/sample on FB if you want ;-)

That's great.

I really haven't started to get my head round all this filter wizardry ... it's all clever stuff :-)

big but gentle. this set has a very organic and subtle feel - especially nice for such a bold font. your use of filters is seamless. very striking yet understated. congrats.
