LSTK Dayfly

The typeface LSTK Dayfly was created in a little more than a day at the OPEN OFFICE event at VIENNA DESIGN WEEK.

The name "dayfly" derives from the word "mayfly", an insect that lives for the average of a day only. Releasing the font to the public, even though still being in early stages of prototyping, questions the reality of the loss of craftsmanship to industrialised processes and production techniques and raises an important question: What can be achieved in a day?
