This font was created under the title of 'decay' and explores the raw natural shapes of origami or paper folding. I wanted to create a font around ripped and destroyed paper while still keeping the simplistic forms of the shapes that appear within origami.

Permutation: The act of changing the arrangement of a given number of elements.
One font, two different brick combinations.
Picking any two bricks from the 169 available gives a total possible combinations of 14196 (169C2) different fonts. Counting a certain kinds of bricks as one--all four 45degree, for instance--gives 36 unique bricks, resulting in 630 (36C2) unique combinations or fonts.
In this font, if the bricks are swapped with each other, the result will be a different font. Hence order of the bricks matter. In which case, nCr (combinations) is not the right choice. What's needed is nPr (permutations). 169P2 gives 28392 permutations and a 36P2 gives 1260 permutations.
So, at a minimum, 1260 fonts are possible with the current implementation of FontStruct, with just this particular layout of bricks.

A play on brickstacking, 'Brutal' is an experiment in creating a one brick fontstruction for multilayered screen printing. To use this font, you simply need to layer the uppercase alphabet on top of (or underneath) the lowercase alphabet (see below for a sample).
Obviously, it doesn't look like much in the Fontstruct preview.
The inspiration for this typeface came about when I was putting together this Flickr gallery of modular multi-colored lettering.
The first 25 downloads are all mine. It was a hard one to test.

Each glyph is one grid space, thanks to brick-stacking :)

FontStruct bricks used to build a font set made of LEGO bricks.
Note that "_" can be used to add a blank space six units large, and "^" can be used to add a blank space one unit large.
Use Legorama Fill to add a perfectly matching color to the text letters.

A tridimensional font on a 4x6 grid. The rendering on a pixel preview size is really neat, you can see only the shadows but the font is still legible. Uppercase, lowercase, numbers and basic punctation.
