description: <p>Federant revives the Reklameschrift \
  typeface Feder Antiqua by Otto Ludwig Nägele (1911). \
  The main challenge of designing a modern interpretation \
  was to balance between applying visual corrections \
  for overall consistency and staying close to the \
  original source. In certain cases the historical \
  authenticy was sacrificed in favour of an even \
  typographic color.</p> \
  <p>This project required research of historic \
  type specimens in search for the missing letterforms. \
  The unusual interpretation of the Yen currency \
  symbol can be found in typefaces of that period.</p> \
  <p>Designed by Olexa M.Volochay, Alexei Vanyashin for Cyreal.</p>
