I am almost sure that I am not inventing anything with this, but I had this font in the mind for time. 70s style and Starsky and Hutch on TV's screen. Good times.

Although not necessarily inventing anything, this is a great set.

There's some very nice attention gone into some of the glyphs and some some subtly clever but recognisable (to me at least) problem solving going on.

If I were you, I'd perhaps consider cloning this and creating a rounded version - it could offer a great conterpart, whilst maintaining the 70's feel.

I forgot to mention - one or two minor issues may be the position of the tail on the 'Q' - perhaps it could sit further to the right - and the '4' feels a little square compared to the others.

@cr.s: Thanks a lot for your very appreciated comments. We're running, beep-beep.

It also has a 1930's storybook feel to it. 10/10

Look at ADL's "Tessa", very similar!

@p2pnut: Thanks for all your interest, ma.ter!
@demonics: I can't find the ADL's "Tessa" font, can you help me with this, please? BTW, he "convergent thinking" is more usual than we know in FS.

Comment by elmoyenique 1st august 2012

This is some very extreme convergent thinking.

Comment by demonics 2nd august 2012

I believe in the convergent thinking (not only in the FS world)! You know that. But distant people, using similar tools they gone to similar results, to solve problems or situations, more than we would expect. Here you are.
