STF_V0N BRAUN - Simple geometric sans-serif typeface.

I tried to recreate the Braun GmbH logo type from 1952 and work it out into a full font, I used only the five letters in the logo as a reference. Since there are a bunch of revivals out there already. I just did my own interpretation of it.

Enjoy!

Excellent! Uu and Vv still need to be distinguished though.

@architaraz i don't think we use "vu" or "uv" very often

Comment by JingYo 5th november 2018

@architaraz: First of all thanks. About UV, I know this wouldve been best, I have been thinking about this while making it, but than I was thinking what would it have been like from the original logo designers perspective. Now taking the other glyphs in cincideration and after disconnecting myself from looking at it from a typographers perspective I came to the conclusion that this most likely this would've been the letterform. And it probably is only confusing seeing the two right next to eachother like in the alphabet preview. When reading a standard text it's not that bad at all I think.

I'm sure you've already thought of these - they would fit within the design parameters of the font you've set.

Comment by Audio 5th november 2018

Actually yes I did. Also constructed a couple more but none really had it for me.. But even tho X makes the second fit within the parameters, I am not very keen with how my X looks either.

Another solution could've been a bevel but I want to avoid any straight angles (bevel) on any of the actual letters.

Comment by Sed4tives 5th november 2018

Oh well I haven't thought of the first actually.. I will try it! Thanks

Nice usage of the Connecting Bricks! Good one!

@ se7en: If only it would've been that easy.. ;)

It's a combination of both

Okay it took me a while but I think I came with a very satisfying solution for both upper and lowercase v.

Well I even edited the the uppercase V's tip some more to match closer to the lowercase its tip.

Finally I got a propper fully curved solution to distinguish V from U, without making compromise to the rounded overall look of the font.
