The Designer wanted initially to use a brush script typeface for a project, but couldn't find any which would answer the needs of the design (the visual effect of the point of an old marker making visible all the lines of the ink). So he decided to design one.

The first version of the typeface “PEN”, was originaly designed for the identity of a records label. The project took finally an another direction. The set was redesigned and called “MARQ”.
