16 downloads16%20downloads166 comments6%20comments6106 glyphs106%20glyphs106A favorite of 7 usersA%20favorite%20of%207%20users7I am studying in my third year of Graphic Design at the university of the west of England (Bristol UWE). I've been away from fontstruct for over a year now, and over the last few weeks I've seen some of the new first year students using it a lot. I couldn't help but notice the new bricks and brick stacking features that are now available. I have designed this typeface on a very small scale, to allow for the bezier curves created by the new bricks. I have had to use some creative brick stacking in order to get as much form out of the typeface as I could. Some of the lowercase glyphs seem to have some similar resemblance to the modernist typeface "universal" by Herbert Bayer. Although "universal" has no uppercase glyphs, whereas mine does! I am really pleased with this font, so thanks very much to fontstruct for putting in the new features. When using this font, I recommend that you set the tracking to around -120 or so, and set the kerning to "optical" rather than metrics". The letters will set quite nicely under these settings. Hope you like it! - Joe I%20am%20studying%20in%20my%20third%20year%20of%20Graphic%20Design%20at%20the%20university%20of%20the%20west%20of%20England%20%28Bristol%20UWE%29.%20I%27ve%20been%20away%20from%20fontstruct%20for%20over%20a%20year%20now%2C%20and%20over%20the%20last%20few%20weeks%20I%27ve%20seen%20some%20of%20the%20new%20first%20year%20students%20using%20it%20a%20lot.%20I%20couldn%27t%20help%20but%20notice%20the%20new%20bricks%20and%20brick%20stacking%20features%20that%20are%20now%20available.%0D%0A%0D%0A%20%0D%0AI%20have%20designed%20this%20typeface%20on%20a%20very%20small%20scale%2C%20to%20allow%20for%20the%20bezier%20curves%20created%20by%20the%20new%20bricks.%20I%20have%20had%20to%20use%20some%20creative%20brick%20stacking%20in%20order%20to%20get%20as%20much%20form%20out%20of%20the%20typeface%20as%20I%20could.%20%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0ASome%20of%20the%20lowercase%20glyphs%20seem%20to%20have%20some%20similar%20resemblance%20to%20the%20modernist%20typeface%20%22universal%22%20by%20Herbert%20Bayer.%20Although%20%22universal%22%20has%20no%20uppercase%20glyphs%2C%20whereas%20mine%20does%21%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AI%20am%20really%20pleased%20with%20this%20font%2C%20so%20thanks%20very%20much%20to%20fontstruct%20for%20putting%20in%20the%20new%20features.%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AWhen%20using%20this%20font%2C%20I%20recommend%20that%20you%20set%20the%20tracking%20to%20around%20-120%20or%20so%2C%20and%20set%20the%20kerning%20to%20%22optical%22%20rather%20than%20metrics%22.%20The%20letters%20will%20set%20quite%20nicely%20under%20these%20settings.%0D%0A%0D%0AHope%20you%20like%20it%21%0D%0A%0D%0A-%20Joe%0D%0A

The first stage of this journey began with my wild font "convention", inspired by the shapes of letterforms, found within architectural environments. The second stage of this process was where i created a font called "rebuild", where i have tried to tame the form from my font "convention". In this third font, i have made further drastic changes, to decide on these forms, and create a small font family called "New Build".I%20am%20on%20the%20quest%20to%20create%20a%20modern%20widely%20usable%20font%2C%20with%20an%20interresting%20difference.%20The%20first%20stage%20of%20this%20journey%20began%20with%20my%20wild%20font%20%22convention%22%2C%20inspired%20by%20the%20shapes%20of%20letterforms%2C%20found%20within%20architectural%20environments.%20The%20second%20stage%20of%20this%20process%20was%20where%20i%20created%20a%20font%20called%20%22rebuild%22%2C%20where%20i%20have%20tried%20to%20tame%20the%20form%20from%20my%20font%20%22convention%22.%20In%20this%20third%20font%2C%20i%20have%20made%20further%20drastic%20changes%2C%20to%20decide%20on%20these%20forms%2C%20and%20create%20a%20small%20font%20family%20called%20%22New%20Build%22.
