This was inspired by two things:

intaglio's comment "I'd love to see you do a full-on deco job with triangles and zigzags and deer and streamlines and..."

... and this wonderful ampersand that I spotted whilst googling for ideas ...

Wow. Very nice. As I've said before, "Go Deco!"
Every word you type with this font looks wonderful. I love it!

Constantly challenging yourself, you always deliver amazing things. You're in a very creative period. It's a fully deserved 10.

I knew you'd do a good job on a deco font! Very, very nice. Would make great drop caps, too.

Thanks all for your kind comments.

I'm just staggered to even be mentioned in the same sentence as RT funk_king :)

Very nice and expressive. But I would make use of the Lowercase, don´t leave it empty...for example to create an Uppercase alternates? That would be beneficial.

Very lovely, man, with this early 20th century's style. Hard to make, well done.

Cheers all and thanks GF for the Top Pick.

Following up on Magic Sam's suggestion I have added a lower case. I thought that a fully decorated l/c would be too OTT, so have opted for a minimilist approach that I think works ok with the u/c ... or could be used on its own.

Maybe the lc could have undecorated versions of the UC glyphs?

The decorations remind me of Indian dreamcatchers, which I think are fabulous, thus... :-)

Lower case now has alternative, undecorated, upper case.

Hope this is what you had in mind Gustavo :)

@p2pnut: I had a look through the fonts that I have downloaded and compared the lowercase of the version of Thursday 17th September, 11:25 PM 2009 with the lowercase of the version of Wednesday 9th September, 11:34 AM 2009.

Hopefully you still have the version of Wednesday 9th September, 11:34 AM 2009 archived in FontStruct bricks format. If so, maybe you could have two fonts, Art DECOrated and Art DECOrated alternates (or whatever name you choose) so that those elegant lowercase designs that you published are still available.

I particularly like the f, j, k, q, v, x, y and z of the lowercase in the version of Wednesday 9th September, 11:34 AM 2009.

@mathematician: Glad you like that lower case ... I was quite pleased with it.

I have made another font (single DECOr) which incorporates that particular lc with the one used for triple DECOr.
