根據設計主旨，品牌廣告公司的客戶想要一種既有未來感卻不搞噱頭或轉瞬即逝的“超現代”字體。設計師Sebastian Lester接受瞭這個有趣的字體定制任務，但很快，這個項目因為官方決定而被取消瞭。
Lester說：“我留下瞭一本滿是想法的草圖本，我想，如果不看看這些想法被設計出來後的效果，那太遺憾瞭。”他決定自己完成設計。
Lester的研究證實，“超現代”字體的關鍵是字符結構的簡單性：精心繪制的單線格式、開放的字母形狀和平滑有力的曲線。為瞭構思一種從現代跨越到未來的字體，Lester決定將這些特質加以放大。
在Lester最初的概念設計工作完成大約一年後，兩種功能強大、用途廣泛的字體出現瞭。它們是Neo Sans和Neo Tech，Lester將其設計描述為“清晰而不中性，細致而不繁瑣，具備表現力卻又不分散註意力”。
Neo Sans和更簡約的Neo Tech傢族都有從Light到Ultra六種字重可供選擇。每一種字重都有其對應的斜體字，Neo Tech還提供瞭一套替換字符。
盡管Neo Sans和Neo Tech的設計看起來像明天一樣現代，但它們在功能和美學上的卓越表現，使它們在Monotype字體庫的經典設計列表中占有一席之地。”
The branding agency’s client wanted an ultra modern" typeface that was "futuristic without being gimmicky or ephemeral," according to the design brief. Designer Sebastian Lester took on this intriguing custom font assignment, but soon, a bureaucratic decision cancelled the project.
"I was left with a sketchbook full of ideas and thought it would be a shame not to see what came of them," says Lester. He decided to finish the design on his own.
Lester’s research confirmed that the principal ingredient of an "ultra modern" typeface was simplicity of character structure: a carefully drawn, monoline form, open letter shapes and smooth, strong curves. To conceive a typeface that crossed the line from modern to futuristic, Lester decided to amplify these qualities.
About a year after Lester’s initial conceptual work, two highly functional and versatile typefaces emerged. These are Neo Sans and Neo Tech, designs Lester describes as "legible without being neutral, nuanced without being fussy, and expressive without being distracting."
Both the Neo Sans and the more-minimalist Neo Tech families are available in six weights, ranging from Light to Ultra. Each has a companion italic, and Neo Tech offers a suite of alternate characters.
While engineered to look modern as tomorrow, Neo Sans and Neo Tech display the functional and aesthetic excellence that earns them a place in the list of classic designs from the Monotype typeface library."
