Rotterdam :-))

In Fort� Agent, i use Arial as the proportional font, i can easily switch

Okay, that's a square alright (stolen or not)!
Now make a box out of that square.
You can enlarge the box to compensate for the perspective.

It could be waaaaaaay better if someone else did it. I left out quite some
