A ⅝×⅞ pixel typeface, an experiment mainly intended as a tool to annotate your fontstructions while building. And, of course, I couldn’t resist the punny name ;-)

Almost all of it is comprised in the Google Fonts Basic set.

Literally in the name, if you clone this font, you will see the letters/symbols just squished in a brick grid.

Started as just a clone of the invaluable resource that is djnippa’s All Composites saved in MY BRICKS.

I added some angles and rearranged them in a manner that works better with my way of fontstructing. Also added the relative widths of 1-square-wide slopes.

Perhaps it can be useful for someone else too.

WARNING: Many bricks are flipped and/or rotated, stack with caution.

I may make a 2×2 version sooner or later. In the meantime, please let me know if I missed anything.

Another (large) set of brick composites.

There are most likely a number of duplicate bricks, not inside this collection itself, but when cross-referenced with todays earlier published collection there most likely are! Nonetheless I think they shouldn't be pulled from the project and should remain included in this collection as well.

All the bricks are saved in "MY BRICKS" pallet.

=============================================

The idea for this was to encourage new Fontstruct users into looking past the editors limitations and work-arounds by way of demonstrating some hands-on examples and ideas. I hope this might inspire people to build upon these ideas and make their own sets of composites for their fonts.

The collection isn't a one stop shop for custom composites, but rather just a random useful set of bricks. To peek inside the stacked composite layout and find out how it was build enable "Expert Mode" inside the editor and press "o" on the keyboard, this switches the editor to "Outline" view mode.

If you like to request specific composite configurations, have ideas for A future update or simply having a question, just let me know in the comment section.

Thats it for now, the project is cloneable, feel free to copy, (re-)use, abuse, expand and /-or redistribute, Enjoy!

Cheers

an attempt was made to create a didone typeface

weird 'a, c, e, f, g, k, r, s, t, v, w, x, y' and more because why not

inspired by droulers and the works of alex slobzheninov

wip, just wanted to publish this for now
