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...

Please, vote kindly and stay tuned for more :)%3Cb%3Efilters%3A%3C%2Fb%3E%202x2%3Cbr%3E%0D%0A%3Cb%3Ex-height%3A%3C%2Fb%3E%202.5%20bricks%3Cbr%3E%0D%0A%3Cb%3Ecap%20height%3A%3C%2Fb%3E%203.5%20bricks%3Cbr%3E%0D%0A%3Cb%3E%23%20of%20unique%20composites%3A%3C%2Fb%3E%20220%2B%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0AThe%20ultra-low%20resolution%20of%20this%20grid%20may%20be%20difficult%20to%20grasp%20without%20cloning.%20Fontstruct%E2%80%99s%20logo%20has%20a%20nominal%20x-height%20of%203%20bricks%2C%20by%20comparison.%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0AThe%20level%20of%20detail%2C%20control%2C%20and%20finesse%20possible%20in%20a%20given%20fonstruction%20depended%20mostly%20on%20resolution%20prior%20to%20the%20recent%20advent%20of%20stackable%20composites.%20Did%20you%20want%20it%20better%3F%20Make%20it%20bigger%21%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0A%3Cb%3EBrute%20force%2C%20now%20meet%20Elegance.%3C%2Fb%3E%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0AInstead%20of%20building%20individual%20glyphs%20hundreds%20of%20bricks%20tall%2C%20stackable%20composites%20allow%20us%20to%20design%20rich%20modular%20schemata%20hundreds%20of%20bricks%20%3Ci%3Edeep%3C%2Fi%3E.%20Using%20curved%20bricks%20at%20their%20largest%20scale%2C%20linear%20and%20curvilinear%20elements%20dynamically%20harmonize%20and%20oppose.%20As%20well%2C%20screen%20fonts%20can%20be%20effectively%20hinted%20%28aside%20from%20notable%20lack%20of%20kerning%20controls%29%20without%20sacrificing%20the%20integrity%20of%20joins%20and%20intersections.%20And%20the%20trapping%20possibilities%2C%20Oh%20the%20sweet%20sweet%20trapping%20possibilities...%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%0D%0APlease%2C%20vote%20kindly%20and%20stay%20tuned%20for%20more%20%3A%29
