Retiler has a brutal, simple structure where the m box of any glyph is made up of three macro modules, with each of them consisting of 24 micro modules. The micro modules form three squares arranged into a six-column grid.

Retiler is a good fit for headlines with highly tight leading — its lowercase and uppercase letters share the same height, while all diacritics push the letter into the m box.

However, Retailer’s functionality goes beyond headlines — if you’re looking to apply the typeface to small pieces of text, just opt for its stylistic set where all accent marks are taken out of the m box. Due to its simple glyph structures, Retiler is an ideal tool for DIY projects, whether it’s a stencil graffiti, a pop-up restaurant menu, or a street football tournament display board.

One can use Retiler’s modules to create vector graphics: simple and concise, such as smileys in its character set, or more complex and detailed, which requires disassembling several glyphs into separate modules.
