This rather quirky typeface is based on a design by Collette and Dufour, originally called “Independant”, for the Maison Plantin foundry of Belgium.

Ultramodern (by 1930s standards, at least) and ultrabold, it takes up a lot of real estate, and commands a lot of attention while doing so.

Both versions of this font include the complete Unicode Latin 1252 and Central European 1250 character sets.
