VFU (Visionary Font Ultra) – this is the name a third-year student from Varna Free University, Volodymyr Fedotov, has given to the font he is presenting at the International Triennial of Typography in Poland.

“To create a font takes a sense of symmetry, balance and some knowledge of mathematics so as to observe the proportions in any letter,” says Volodymyr, who is studying graphic design.
