ARS NOUVEAUX - Art Nouveau inspired display typeface
═══════════════════════════════════
A personal digital reimagination of the lettering style by "Charles Rennie Mackintosh" (1868-1928), a pioneer of the "Glasgow School of Art" and so called "Arts & Crafts" movement.
His distinctive style of lettering has been seen many revisions, revivals, reimaginations and inspired designs alike over the years, and has evolved into a broad collection of available fonts.
This basic stylistic lettering concept from Mackintosh sort-of losely funcioned as the structural guiding principle for the creation of "Ars-Nouveaux".  
This FontStruction is an experimentation into creating similar flavored, but still unique letterforms within that same design framework.
 
First I started to layout the overall basic asymmetrical core geometry from a set of custom rectangles, half arc's and slants for each of the letters bare skeleton shape. Once I completed the full set of 36 glyphs [a/z, 0/9] These basic shaped were then further modified into more sophisticated finalized letterforms.

Caps-only, but with many alternates, accompanied by a set of ornate initials.

Hope you like it,

Cheers

This is my attempt to make an ornate blackletter typeface, but pixelated! I really enjoyed adding all of the swirls and firls to adorn the font itself, so i hope you all enjoy it :-)

I designed this type font for a project in college, and found myself really connecting deeply with the themes I represented in this font. Ideally, this wouldn't be used for a novel, but rather a graphic novel or comic. Please send me an email if you choose to use this font, and I hope you share your work with me!

This ornate typeface was designed with the intention to give every part of a letterform some curve. The end result was a typeface that mirrored the rounded shape of old-fashioned wood spindles like one might find on an antique dinning chair or an elaborate staircase in an ancestry home. Spindles like these were handcrafted and born from the finest lumber a proud wood worker could find. This same type of pride went into the crafting of Simple Spindle.

A blackletter gothic style font, dark and mysterious.

This font was designed around the theme word Elegant.  I was inspired to create a typeface that was ornate and palatial; it is a ode to Baroque design.

I have tried to emulate columns for the body of the font and created a crowned frieze for some of the letters with decorative toppers for the remaining characters.

A completely 8-Bit type face inspired by western cowboys and extra-terrestial aliens. Font is free for for all ranchers, cattlemen, geeks, E.Ts and Jovians.

A set of decorative tiles for use as dividers, to call  for attention when placed in texts, to use as web backgrounds, etcetc.

UC is 8x8,  LC is  7x7.

Reverse in the  visual context can mean many things. I decided to create letters and mirrored them, attaching them to a spine.The letters looked like filigree jewellery  pendants.

I know that the I , T and W don't follow the design rule; I tried to align them on a spine but the result was unsatisfactory.

Developped from the basic Raysan design I made to celebrate knowing P2P and appreciating his support when I first started FontStructing, I wanted a joyous more relaxed look to thank him.

This is not just another tile set that simply uses a wider variety of brick in each glyph. I added "twists". I wonder how long before someone notices ;)

Inspired by a lace edged table cloth. Good for a word of greeting on a card for Easter (or Ostara, but you're a day late ;)  so you best grab it for next year... )  It would be great to use on cards, labels, book bindings, for someone doing needlework, crochet, knitting, tatting, macramé, sewing, stencil work and similar paper or thread based  crafts.

Home blends contemporary sans-serif characters, created using negative space, with ornate mosaic patterns to form a decorative display font in the style of kitchen tiles. Each character is unique - set against four identical patterned tiles. This typeface is very versatile and functional insofar as that it has the potential to be used in a variety of diverse settings such as magazine article headings, pottery and ceramic prints, wall-hangings and shop signage.

This typeface follows the theme Systematic. I was greatly influenced by clocks, including pocket watches and clock hands including there internal and exterior aesthetics. As my research and planning developed, my final outcome evolved from illustrative and ornate sketches to a more refined and simple final outcome. I would appreciate feedback :-)
