Project 32
Verve[Tyepface]

Verve is a coded typeface inspired by superheroes and my friend Manjing Chen’s confession of pretending to fight villains when she is at the gym. Unintentionally, the design of this typeface resembles Captain America’s shield(1)! The secondary typeface that is paired with Verve in the specimen is Almarai.
