Eileen is an art-deco-style typeface with five weights. It mixes two popular sans serif styles from the 1920s: capital letters are art deco, and the lowercase is geometric. Each font contains alternate forms of “ C,” “G,” “J” and “S.” The lowercase letters include a number of constructed features: “a” and “g” are both single-storey, while the bottoms of “t” and “y” are straightened out. Some of the non-alphabetic characters are unique, such as the narrow dollar and rupee currency symbols, as well as the brave ampersand. Eileen is named after the Irish furniture designer Eileen Gray (1878–1976). She was a pioneering Modernist, and this typeface is a fitting typographic tribute to her work.

One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin.

He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked. The Metamorphosis is a short story, sometimes regarded as a novella, by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. It has been cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is studied in colleges and universities across the Western world.
