Praise Be! is an upcoming strategy and RPG video game by Meaning Machine Games that works as a "prayer simulator". As such, the logotype was inspired by the weight that religious beliefs can have on a society. The game will include featureless characters, which were an inspiration for the human figures under the letters. Other influences were 3D "stone carved" logotypes such as the ones of the films "Ben Hur" and Monty Python's "The life of Brian", as well as certain geometric letter styles commonly seen in contemporary graffiti. The logotype for the game was revealed in 2025.

I Love Roubaix is a typeface inspired by the history of Roubaix, a city in the north of France. Roubaix knew a certain growth during the industrial revolution in the 19th century.
The I Love Roubaix typeface was developed at the request of the Roubaix Tourism Office and of the atelier Bien Vu. Its design is based on brick-shaped modules, as a reference to the predominant building method in the city.
