Jono Sans Project — Typophile archive

I recently started designing a typeface that I am really excited about. This is where it started:

While it looks like a script, its really more of a sans serif. I don’t want cursive or italic forms (like s, one storey a, f and so on), rather I want a relaxed sans typeface that is interconnected. I know this will take some serious work, but I am up for it.

Please give feedback and let me know your thoughts.

Thanks!

As far as readability goes, I think the i might be problematic. Next to the s, it kind of looks like a t, and next to the l, it looks like a lowercase b.

Of course, I'm assuming that the word in the graphic is "simplify" and not "stmpbfy"
