Hello everyone, this is my newest typeface that started as a Python script experiment and now transformed into a regular font family.
ION superfamily consists of 3 families — condensed (ION A), normal (ION B) and wide (ION C). The glyphs are based on the classic 7-segment display. Every ION family has a compelling range of 10 weights, supports more than 70 Latin-based languages and various OpenType features, including discretionary ligatures, fractions and stylistic sets. The family is completed with a special box-drawing font called Cells. See and read more at Urtd or go check it at MyFonts.
Thanks for your comments!

I love the fatness of the U3 weight! :-)

The fatter the better!

It never would have even occurred to me to do this much with a modular design—or that scripting/interpolating the design would work out so well. Good work.
