7 downloads7%20downloads72 comments2%20comments289 glyphs89%20glyphs89This font is based on Herbert Bayer's Universal font from 1926. His typeface was created with the intent of reducing letterforms to their simplest characteristics and eliminating all other typefaces. While this font was not made with such high ideals or ambitions, it was inspired by his simple letterforms and is built from simple pieces which are repeated throughout the various characters to create an overall unity. Unlike Bayer's type I chose to focus more on a set of mostly uppercase characters rather than lowercase and I elongated the letterforms. All of the strokes are the same width focusing on a more functional aesthetic focusing on reduction and simplicity.This%20font%20is%20based%20on%20Herbert%20Bayer%27s%20Universal%20font%20from%201926.%20His%20typeface%20was%20created%20with%20the%20intent%20of%20reducing%20letterforms%20to%20their%20simplest%20characteristics%20and%20eliminating%20all%20other%20typefaces.%20While%20this%20font%20was%20not%20made%20with%20such%20high%20ideals%20or%20ambitions%2C%20it%20was%20inspired%20by%20his%20simple%20letterforms%20and%20is%20built%20from%20simple%20pieces%20which%20are%20repeated%20throughout%20the%20various%20characters%20to%20create%20an%20overall%20unity.%20Unlike%20Bayer%27s%20type%20I%20chose%20to%20focus%20more%20on%20a%20set%20of%20mostly%20uppercase%20characters%20rather%20than%20lowercase%20and%20I%20elongated%20the%20letterforms.%20All%20of%20the%20strokes%20are%20the%20same%20width%20focusing%20on%20a%20more%20functional%20aesthetic%20focusing%20on%20reduction%20and%20simplicity.

The original’s lowercase had several compelling and unique features (at the time), the uppercase worked well enough in all caps display settings...but they very rarely sat comfortably together. The answer couldn’t have been more simple: since the caps (which surprisingly came first...or does this just reveal my noobishness at the time?) are rather narrow, the lowercase itself needed to follow a more logically elongated model.

Here the flexibility of 2x2 filters kicks into high gear as the original design’s lc is tweaked by half a brick extra height to bring about a more righteously rockin’ family.
