Px Grotesk was designed from the rendering of typographic curves on screens. At smaller sizes, pixels sometimes brutally simplify shapes. Taking this paradox as his starting point, Nicolas Eigenheer designed a typeface that embeds a pixel-grid structure into a classic, optically adjusted drawing. The result of this method is a series of hybrid shapes that combine formal solutions from both domains. The signature pixelated look is preserved in the typeface and creates a contradictory relationship between a grid and a flexible line.
