- Highly legible font family, designed and tested to be used on aircraft cockpit screens. Its design makes it particularly suitable for degraded contexts (ensuring legibility and readability of data), with a positive effect on reducing visual fatigue and cognitive load. Particular attention was given to the uniformity of the typeface, whether being used for isolated terms, reading information on a map, mixing capital letters and numbers, waypoint lists, long or abbreviated texts, specific terms and data in the aeronautical field.

- Contributed to the ZCOOL font project by designer Li Dawei and the team at Zuozi, who created the typeface as a gift for David’s daughter, “Little Fern”, on her third birthday.
