Before it was Nova, it was Gothica. That was the name Wojciech Kalinowski gave his stone inscription alphabet when he brought it onto a computer in 2010 and drew the lowercase it had never had. Along the way he kept making other versions of certain letters, and in the end there were enough of them to build 6 families, each named for its shape, plus a monospace as a 7th.
Oval is the one built on, as the name says, the oval. The letters set large and a little wide, so a short word fills a space easily. Use it for a title or a logo, 1 Regular style, Latin with accents.
