# of unique composites: 220+

The ultra-low resolution of this grid may be difficult to grasp without cloning. Fontstruct’s logo has a nominal x-height of 3 bricks, by comparison.

The level of detail, control, and finesse possible in a given fonstruction depended mostly on resolution prior to the recent advent of stackable composites. Did you want it better? Make it bigger!

Brute force, now meet Elegance.

Instead of building individual glyphs hundreds of bricks tall, stackable composites allow us to design rich modular schemata hundreds of bricks deep. Using curved bricks at their largest scale, linear and curvilinear elements dynamically harmonize and oppose. As well, screen fonts can be effectively hinted (aside from notable lack of kerning controls) without sacrificing the integrity of joins and intersections. And the trapping possibilities, Oh the sweet sweet trapping possibilities...

A winning, small-matrix rendition of this super-elliptical monoline sans. If you’d like, please enjoy a private clone to tour the brand-spankin’ new interiors.
I embraced innovation at the expense of imperfection with faux-curve composite stacks. These custom bricks are used to resolve the most glaring proportion issues besetting version 1 (and 2’s) capitals. I risk intermittent aliasing as well as potential inconsistencies in both curvature and stroke contrast. Yet these composite-stack discontinuities (A,C,D,G,J,O,Q,S,U,V) marry unexpectedly well with the extensively used macaroni bricks and remain themselves smooth up to an impressive 72pt.
Manual kerning leaves a lot of room for improvement. The alternates are included mostly for curiosity’s sake. Another work in progress with samples to follow. Feedback is always very appreciated; thanks in advance for it! :)%3Cb%3EVersion%202.0%3C%2Fb%3E%0D%0A%3Cp%3EA%20winning%2C%20small-matrix%20rendition%20of%20this%20super-elliptical%20monoline%20sans.%20If%20you%E2%80%99d%20like%2C%20please%20enjoy%20a%20private%20clone%20to%20tour%20the%20brand-spankin%E2%80%99%20new%20interiors.%0D%0A%3Cp%3EI%20embraced%20innovation%20at%20the%20expense%20of%20imperfection%20with%20faux-curve%20composite%20stacks.%20These%20custom%20bricks%20are%20used%20to%20resolve%20the%20most%20glaring%20proportion%20issues%20besetting%20version%201%20%28and%202%E2%80%99s%29%20capitals.%20I%20risk%20intermittent%20aliasing%20as%20well%20as%20potential%20inconsistencies%20in%20both%20curvature%20and%20stroke%20contrast.%20Yet%20these%20composite-stack%20discontinuities%20%28A%2CC%2CD%2CG%2CJ%2CO%2CQ%2CS%2CU%2CV%29%20marry%20unexpectedly%20well%20with%20the%20extensively%20used%20macaroni%20bricks%20and%20remain%20themselves%20smooth%20up%20to%20an%20impressive%2072pt.%0D%0A%3Cp%3EManual%20kerning%20leaves%20a%20lot%20of%20room%20for%20improvement.%20The%20alternates%20are%20included%20mostly%20for%20curiosity%E2%80%99s%20sake.%20Another%20work%20in%20progress%20with%20samples%20to%20follow.%20Feedback%20is%20always%20very%20appreciated%3B%20thanks%20in%20advance%20for%20it%21%20%3A%29

The resulting display typeface accommodates tight leading and customizes easily in outline mode. Composite stacks yield the smallest matrix currently possible for this charming design. Though a more refined 2-times expansion is easy enough to imagine, economy of brick and scale lead to more efficient and exciting brick substitutions.

Narrow and heavy, ultra bold Piano key designs once required fractional brick scaling to generate their distinctive slit-like counter forms while working with maximum curves. Composite stacks provide a more elegant and versatile solution to this old problem. In this way, they can be seen as an important milestone on the road toward individually scalable bricks...

Letterspacing is kept tight in this fontstruction, but still needs a great deal of manual kerning especially around all the character lacking serifs on one or both sides.
