If you have ever been to Paris, France, you must
have taken the subway, called the "Metro", at
least once. This picturesque underground train
bears the most amazing Art Nouveau
stations, created by the genius Hector Guimard,
and this font was used to display station names.
Of course, this font is not the original, as the
lettering was hand painted for every panel, and
there were variations on the same style. I tried
to keep with the original, made after sketches I
took on location about 15 years ago.

PS
:
Since the Guimard stations were overhauled
in the late 90's it is very unfortunate that the
original brush hand-made lettering has been
replaced by an analogous font. Young engineers
probably never realized that replacinh a hand-made
lettering by a font made it a whole lot less "Art
Nouveau". Actually, from art, it just became yet
another industrial product. Pity when renovation
means a loss of original quality...
