Merel by Mariya V Pigoulevskaya

This modern, geometric typeface, Merel, was created by designer Mariya V Pigoulevskaya. Available from font foundry The Northern Block, the design is described thus: "Despite being rational and function driven in its nature, Merel has a soft and gentle touch. It was designed to tackle both print and onscreen challenges of the modern environment."
