Day Care Font

DAYCARE

A Humanist / decorative sans serif typeface.

Process
Daycare is formal reflection on childhood drawings and childhood care arrangements. Daycare is soft, uneven and playful, capturing the lack of rigid control in preschoolers drawing. With a nod to formal care arrangements, Daycare has a serious underpinning with a full central european character set with special emphasis placed on macron’s, a key typographic element required for writing Māori.

Contrast is very low, weight is heavy, x height is high, diacritics are playful, strokes are uneven, kerning is loose.
