Hello! This is my font, Fade! I wanted to make a font that was similar to the brush effect on lettering and it wouldn't take long to make. That was when I figured out that I could make a font that faded and that's what I did! 

This typeface is inspired by the 1970’s and draws from groovy and retro psychadelic aesthetic of the iconic decade. The capital letters have much more pronounced swirls and a more bubbly feeling than the lowercase ones. Since lowercase letters appear more often, they were designed to be more simple and legible than the capitals. 
 

The font Arithmetic is a typeface that I have created for my typography class. The font was loosely based around the pixelated font that a calculator has and that is where it gets its name This font is done in a grid system that most of the letters follow so that everything is very consistent. This font could be used in many ways and is very versatile.

A bold and blocky typeface with both a thick and thin edge. Works well in a large letter size. Meant or posters, flyers, and print.

Designed exclusively for headlines, Umstellen lets the user choose which variations of forms they would like to use, and which is most appropriate in given circumstances. Inspired by the idea of wanting to bring space to compressed letterforms.

This typeface was inspired by aspects of my handwriting. I came up with the name “Simplified Ciari” from one of my middle names. I imagine this typeface being used in video games or 80’s themed pixel posters.

Bucket was inspired by typefaces found things such as retro signs, wallets, metal cut outs and ceramic mugs. These combined insparations makes a very quirky design that could be a very versatile display typeface. I named my typeface Bucket because the large counters feel like they could hold a lot of value, like a bucket.

Pop Light was inspired by the exciting forms and shapes created by LED lights. References include electronic billboards and theater signs that utilize large bright dots. The numerous fades add depth and help put the "pop" in Pop Light.

Pop Shadow was inspired by the exciting forms and shapes created by LED lights. References include electronic billboards and theater signs that utilize large bright dots. The numerous fades add depth and help put the "pop" in Pop Shadow.

This font was inspired by a cup of champagne. While designing this font, the letters looked like as if it was filled with the bubbles in a cup of champagne. 

Chicano was inspired by my love for everything West Coast, specifically with the Chicano culture. I was influenced by Chicano style tattoos which carries a ton of qualities from the blackletter typeface. Chicano takes just some of my favorite qualities of blackletter without a lot of the elaborate line work.  

Schwester was first inspired by the weight of the edges of the capital letter “O”. The combination of slanted type, hand drawn drop caps, and my love of the band QUEEN, helped to push the typeface into existence. For the typeface’s name Schwester, it is the German word for sister. This name stuck out to me much like my sibling’s use of the word to get my attention. My Germanic Nickname name seemed to fit perfectly. Since both the typeface and the name both are comfortable, sophisticated yet personal. Although pixelated, my goal is to someday finalize it so the edges are more curved and smooth.
