In the future we will have metadata attached to each letter. Metadata will also indicate the ordinal letter order of each word. And wrapping will start lines with the space rather than today where the space is on the end of the previous line.
From top to bottom, I have included a 'future' letter category, Morse code, the letter and some letter width data, unicode bits, and the letter beginning along with case.
Reload your brain, ask about everything. Our Future begins in... 3... 2... 1... NOW! NB: Better writing with uppercase. Three alternatives (B, F, T) to improve readability in certain cases are in the lowercase.

This is a clone of De Stijl CSbB Directorate is my typographic ode to science fiction bureaucracy. Directorate is named for the government in the TV “classic” Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. From the Alliance in Firefly to the Federation in Star Trek, the bureaucratic government is a theme through science fiction, and I always imagined they’d have a typeface like this…
What would futuristic type design be without ridiculously wide letters?
Also looks great at narrower widths down to 50%.

~Type an uppercase letter and type the corresponding (or some other) lowercase letter to fill in the shape.
You can use the uppercase letters to form one word and type the lowercase fill letters to form the same or another word, or fill with a blanking glyph to complete the letter with no center letter. So, two types of letters are possible with this one font.
The letters had to be designed such that the uppercase could read as a letter without a center fill on it's own, or filled with blank glyph, or with a center letter. In doing so, the font turned auto-stencil and auto-monospaced. Also, since the unfilled uppercase read as the correct letter with the hole in it, this fs can be said to have three fonts in it.
The gaps are 1/8 brick; the thickness of the inner letter strokes is 2/8 brick. Therefore, this limitation meant that the glyphs with a stroke in the horizontal center can either be lined up with the left side blocks or the right side one. Therefore, 3/8 brick thickness I and T are provided on { and }.
Letter couples are as follows: Aa Bb Cc Dd Ee Ff Gg Hh Ii or I{ Jj Kk Ll Mm Nn Oo Pp Qq Rr Ss Tt or T} Uu Vv Ww Xx Yy Zz
Number couples are: !1 @2 #3 $4 %5 ^6 &7 *8 (9 )0
Blanks: ~, space
Center blank: `
Pipe: = (which will offset the monospacing)
Others; ? is at ?/ ! is at |\
Punctuations are where they are supposed to be: . , ; : ' " ’ ” ‘ “ -
Sample: Type the following in User Input to see the font as it is supposed to be: A`AaB`BbC`CcD`DdE`EeF`FfG`GgH`HhI`IiI{J`JjK`KkL`LlM`MmN`NnO`OoP`PpQ`QqR`RrS`SsT`TtT}U`UuV`VvW`WwX`XxY`YyZ`Zz!`!1@`@2#`#3$`$4%`%5^`^6&`&7*`*8(`(9)`)0?`?/|`|\)-)+~_<>=
6 bricks tall.
The sample is a font pun: TWO in ONE.
PS: Not sure how future it is.
This is finished as far as I see useful for this competition. Based on Spheretta 5.7 by arseniiv from 2011 which I cloned quite a while ago as the uneven spacing-positioning of the dots on the ring could be improved with new fontstructor's features. I sent him a message about my clone but assume he hasn' frequented FS for a while, so he doesn't know about how I developed his idea and won't see that I've used part of his design in my "future comp" submission.
Made for FontStruct's Future Competition. This display typeface was designed with a little influence from stencil, this font has rounded corners intermixed with angular corners, and gaps in unusual places. It also uses the “two-storey” lowercase g, which was a challenge to fit cohesively within the restrictions I gave myself.
ASCII + Cyrillic.
