Franklin Gothic is a simple sans serif font in multiple weights created by morris fuller benton in 1902. Multiple weights were added in 1980 when it was redrawn. Franklin Gothic is often used in signage. I kept designs jan-dec bold and experimental. Text orientation is varied and user experiences are heightened. Orange adds a jolt of contrast drawing from caution signs.
