Based on Tony Wenman's Stripes font (released by Letraset in 1972), Octothorpe is a clever typographic tool that allows you to design stunning and provocative digital lettering pieces. Octothorpe's eight-line stroke immerses the reader in a hypnotic and variegated path, made of infinite possibilities, from which it is difficult to return. If you're not a visual artist, not a designer, or just not a font enthusiast, you'd be better off ignoring this font!
