About
During a daily commute with the bus I found various matrix displays that showed the upcoming stop. Depending on the restrictions of the display the look and feel of letters changed. What intrigued me was that the limitations gave way to quirks that otherwise wouldn't exist. 
 
My aim was to set up a grid that leaves space for more stylistic details. By dividing squares into triangles I was able to add an extra dimension. I held on to some modular qualities and used bifurcated endings and cutted corners to make distinctions between similar looking letters.

By carving away some of the triangles it was possible to explore a wide range of stylistic elements
