Faux perspective

Revisiting Celosia, this time with faux-beziers instead of pixels.

Alternate @ design on ©.

Experimental endeavor into avant-garde, reversed-contrast inspired letterforms.

I will explain the font in more detail bellow in the comment section.

THE MOMENT YOU STEP INTO SPOOK MANSION, YOU REALIZE YOU DONE GOOFED UP. THE DOOR SLAMS SHUT BEHIND YOU AS SCARY PIANO MUSIC BEGINS TO WASH OVER YOU AND TERRIFYING KICK DRUM SOUNDS BEGIN TO PUMMEL YOU. WITHIN MOMENTS, YOU ARE DROWNING IN A SEA OF EERIE AMBIENCE. "WOE BETIDE THE FOOL WHO CONSPIRES TO TAKE MY RICHES!", SHOUTS A GHOSTLY VOICE SOMEWHERE BEHIND YOU. YOU TURN, BUT NOTHING'S THERE. BOO! LOL....................................................

 Ahh sadly due to repeatedly running into a corrupted font when I save newly made changes to it, it eventually catching up with me and tested the limit of my patience.

I have had to painstakingly restore the font 5 times already since I started it.

So I stopped including new characters as well as making new changes to its existing character set. (At least for now)

Too bad because I wouldve loved to see this truly getting finalized.

So at this stage there are still a number of characters that remain in rough condition, and had yet to be further optimized.

The main A-Z alphabet luckily already was close to how I invisioned it, but especially the numerals, symbols and accents still have some rough edges.

Now, forgetting all that, I still think it is not a bad font at all. Everything is there for most common Western-European languages, somewhat still making this a usable font that I shouldn't be keeping in private!

I hope that despite my bad luck this time, y'all still like it.

================================================

About this Font:

The idea was to make a classic Didone style display serif that is meant for making clean headline text similar to those often seen in older magazines or newspapers. I set out trying to design a semi-bold & slight expanded looking letterform with thin hairline serifs and strokes. I choose a large grid scale for the extra freedom in custom shaping this provides.

================================================

Technique I used in this design:

This font in particular I have experimented with working within a "(asymmetrical-) Grid Scale ratio" ( 1,5:1 ), so, changing only the value for the Horizontal grid scale. (This distorts the grid aspect ratio, and is a great way to discover and experiment with getting new forms and shapes).

The 1,5 : 1 ratio was specifically choosen to keep maths simple, in order to rebuild certain required bricks that build specific slope angles , such as a 45° (which is no longer possible to make from the FS default brick set when using asymmetric scale ratios, unless making composites).

But what this also does is opening up a totally new approach to making shapes, and..becoming quite a surprisingly easy shortcut to get unusual shapes or make variations on these, even with as little as just the rotation of the bricks/selection. (thanks to the distorted aspect ratio)  :-).

This is a must try for those who are into large grid designs, fake curves or interrested in experimenting around a little.

Enjoy!

a 1920s-style font in 2019... :)

A continuation in the style of Genera and Genera Deux

Is it Serif or Sans? Western or Gothic? Double font or not? One thing is certain: This is not a time-travelling alien. Probably.

I decided to make a design which incorporated the thinnest/lightest weight lines possible in FontStruct. This is the result; I'll add more if people like it.

These 1/32 lines cannot be accurately nudged, so a unique line has to be built for each vertical position where I want a line. These lines also cannot be centered on a place where two curves meet (such as the middle of B or R). This introduces some unintentional asymmetry to the design, but I like it, so I'll keep it.

There is also the problem that forming a diagonal line of the same line weight is nearly impossible. While angled 1/32 lines can be formed, their angles are all close to 0. No method exists for making a line which slants at 45 degrees while also being 1/32 weight. So, I had to make some thicker lines in certain areas. I don't think they detract from the design, but if you scrutinize this enough, you'll notice them.

Isometric 3D outline style typeface.

The glyph have a exact copy slighly elevated and to the right of its original which I then connected with eachother to create the box-like three-dimensional idea.

Because of some serious design difficulties it remains far from complete, but I am kind of done with it for now due to this. For now only support for uppercase, no numerals and very limited punctuations. I think I fully kerned it, or at least everything that is important. On last thing I need to mention, the smallest open spaces doesn't allow this font to work in very small size. These will look filled at smaller point size.

I'm not sure if I will ever try another attempt to finish it at a later stage. (who will tell..) ;)

But I think what I've got so far is too cool for not publishing it. So for now it would do just fine as a logotype or for a decorative usage but not much else.

Enjoy!

Inspired by a type identification request over at Typography.guru.

During developement, the tool has taken over, also helped by the scarcity of letters available in the original, making the design more sans than serif, and with strong MICR vibes in some places.

The name means "shoe shop" (also shoe repair or shoe making) in Italian.

At the moment the language coverage is limited to Western Europe.

A futurustic typeface inspired by the classic NASA worm logotype.

Uppercase only, no lowercase planned!

Enjoy nonetheless

A pixel font which combines four experimental techniques at once:

1. Structurally disconnecting the stems from the open parts of letters.

2. Allowing glyphs to extend beyond the reaches of width and starting position.

3. Designing glyphs specifically to connect and form new shapes, rather than simply allowing shapes to emerge from existing characteristics.

4. Designing glyphs so that the overall font is free of a need for kerning.

Alternates are now on UPPER CASE. I'll continue to update this as I get more ideas!

"thank god theres a copy and paste function"

i thought an isometrical font would be nice so i made one

wow i like 3d fonts huh

Geometric semi-serif gothic grotesk design

Bauhaus inspired geometric design.

I know there is tons of out there already, still I had to do one myself!

It's far from perfect, but it was made on a very tiny grid space, so a whole lot of space to occupy with bricks wasn't a luxury this one!  (I'll demonstrate a example below)

Still I think it looks pretty rad so far!

The regular version for STF_UNI

-----------------------------------------------

UNI - is a all caps semi-serif 3-D outline display typeface that was aimed at college sports teams.
The font features 2 styles, regular & shadowed (cloned to a seporate fontstruction).

Shadowed version is found here:

Enjoy!

I saw a old poster on the internet and this is a remake of the font it used.

By request, a condensed and quirky outline font!
