![Overview](https://github.com/violetoffice/violet_sans/blob/master/documentation/images/violet_sans_overview.png)

Violet Sans finds harmony in disparate forms, at once sharp and aggressive it can retreat to being gentle and smooth, allowing for different expressions within a single weight and style. Initially designed as an all caps display face with generous counterform’s and extended crossbars, this same personality has been extrapolated into the wider character set. As a nod to the long tradition of geometric san serif typefaces, in particular Eurostile, Violet Sans has been developed for modern applications with a bit of experimentation and haphazard gestures built right in. For daily use, enjoy.
