a futuristic-looking typeface. enjoy!

Spyder is a sleek and sporty typeface that is meant to look basic, yet futuristic. It's simplistic and uniform design make it a great choice for most applications!

I have created this typeface inspired by my theme ‘sustainability’ and the protection of the environment, particularly focusing within the fashion industry. This project has made me think more in depth about the affects fast fashion has to the environment and how this can be resolved. I started experimenting this theme by sketching distorted, organic typefaces to create a freeform look to represent the quality of fast fashion. This led me to looking at thread and embroidery and how freeform and swift it is unravelled, I used thread to create letters and see how they form naturally when placing the thread down. I took photos of the outcomes and used them to inspire my fontstruct letters. This gave me a sense of the shapes and lines that are created naturally and pushed me a step further within my progression.

A sleek, futuristic, Sci-Fi font that I created. One of my inspirations of creating a font like this was a film called 'Ex-Machina'. It is a sci-fi movie that I would encourage you to see! I wanted to add my own style to this font by making the corners or edges of the letters split. I think adding an element like that makes this font more unique.
