Based on the principles of Classic Modernism, its objectivity and functionality, Modest re-interprets the concept of geometric Sans Serif designs.

Its skeleton is based on basic geometric shapes such as square, circle and triangle. However, even though Modest is a constructed typeface, related shapes never really resemble themselves. In order to keep the overall design harmonious while still sticking to the underlying concept of its construction and symmetry, every single shape had to be slightly modified.

Modest therefore finds unique answers to constantly reccuring, archetypical questions of geometric Sans Serif typefaces while still adding a very modern feel to it.
