After exploring motion and different types of movement, I was drawn to dance, specifically Jazz dance. Jazz dance became popular in the 1920's and "Jazz" is inspired by the posters that were used to promote different balls and dances at the time.

This is my second attempt at the theme "shadow". The letters have been stripped of all and are just shadows of their former selves.

This version of Global Village is also designed for the use in an E-book I am beginning working on as part of a third year university Graphic Design project.
This version shows how the typeface has been constructed as the individual bricks are slightly seperated from one another.This is a clone of Global village

I am studying in my third year of Graphic Design at the university of the west of England (Bristol UWE). I've been away from fontstruct for over a year now, and over the last few weeks I've seen some of the new first year students using it a lot. I couldn't help but notice the new bricks and brick stacking features that are now available.
I have designed this typeface on a very small scale, to allow for the bezier curves created by the new bricks. I have had to use some creative brick stacking in order to get as much form out of the typeface as I could.
Some of the lowercase glyphs seem to have some similar resemblance to the modernist typeface "universal" by Herbert Bayer. Although "universal" has no uppercase glyphs, whereas mine does!
I am really pleased with this font, so thanks very much to fontstruct for putting in the new features.
When using this font, I recommend that you set the tracking to around -120 or so, and set the kerning to "optical" rather than metrics". The letters will set quite nicely under these settings.
Hope you like it!

This is my first fontstruction, for a first year univesity project. The design is based on the word ornate. I looked at the gothic architecture of the churches in Bristol. Studying the patterns and forms within the buildings. It is just capitals and some puntuation. Any comments welcome.

Here is my first fontstruction for a brief set on my Graphic Design course at UWE. It was originally based on the theme of repetition and the game Space Invaders. During development, it then started to take inspiration from the form of a digital display and began to look futuristic. I then carried on with this theme to finally end up with my font, Digitalistic.
Any feedback will be much appreciated.

First time using Fonstruct. Font designed around the theme of decay, focusing on derelict buildings and areas where nature has begun to take over. Whilst loosely based on the somewhat derelict font, Times New Roman.
Welcome any feedback.
(work in progress; mainly letter 'R')
Best viewed zoomed in slightly.

First fontface ever done for uni brief dealing the theme 'sharp'.
After some research i found out that a sharp is also a lunar impact crater and decided to build this font around this idea. The stripes are also a reminder of noise as a sharp is also a very high pitch note...
Feedback welcome!

Built around the theme of Decay, the main meaning behind this font is representation of Architectural Decay. The tight kerning and thin widths of each letter are to show the height of buildings when put together in skylines. The mixture of serif and sans serif letters are used as examples of both traditional and modern day architecture being brought together in the same space, although how despite the age differences, both old and new are prone to decay like everything else.

I am on the quest to create a modern widely usable font, with an interresting difference. The first stage of this journey began with my wild font "convention", inspired by the shapes of letterforms, found within architectural environments. The second stage of this process was where i created a font called "rebuild", where i have tried to tame the form from my font "convention". In this third font, i have made further drastic changes, to decide on these forms. Using these forms, i now intend to create a small font family called "new build"!This is a clone of Newbuild (demi)

Inspired by the word repetition, 'Rerun' was designed with the idea of having a zigzag baseline that would run throughout the typeface. I wanted to create characters that would fit neatly alongside each other. This is most predominate in the uppercase, which fits together in a tessellating pattern.This is a clone
