I'm sorry this isn't very complete and far from being perfectly well done, but it somewhat started to make me feel dizzy...;) And even though I'm not very convinced by this, I don't think I'd come up with a way better execution soon.I hope for Mr Escher that there are better tribute fonts for him out there! He'd definitely deserve it...It was by the way funk_king's Impossible Alphabet that reminded me of this unfinished thing laying around in my messy unpublished fontstructions box, and made me take it out and finish it. (If you can call 42 characters "finished".)

And I'm sure everybody got told at least once to finally shut down that damn computer while fontstructing.
Here's how you can go on tinkering fonts even with the computer unplugged!;)

I had carried this idea around with me a long time ago, doing some sketches, but abandoning it cause I thought all the thin and dotted lines would go beyond fontstruct's possibilities. Until funk_king proved me wrong... Thanks for the re-inspiration!

I think this is pretty self-explaining. Cut along the solid lines, fold along the dotted lines and put some glue on the shaded parts, put it all together, and there you go with your new toys!

Unfortunately it was impossible to fill all the inner sides of all the counters, but I tried to leave them open where you'd see it least. There might also be some bugs, I haven't tried them out yet. Pure brainwork so far... (My brain's still in the freezer to cool down a bit) In case someone ever actually uses them and finds something wrong, please let me know!

Hope you like it!:)

Roughly based on my NCD Black Square fontstruct, but massively scaled up to accommodate the internal lines.

I found that the small caps version works nicely when used in odd combinations with the lower case. Particularly the upper 'R'.

Most difficult characters were the F/f. I wasn't too keen on the open space they made, so I've added more than a few alternatives. The 'r', 'J' & 'L' gave me a similar visual dilemma.

I have also completed a version with Normal Caps. Which will be displayed soon.


ALTERNATIVES
============

# = d (stem facing other way)
^ = e (extended arm)
< = F (rounded top edges)
* = f (over lapping next character)
\ = f (alternative with extended tale)
] = g (old style)
% = g (old style with ear)
[ = g (extended foot)
‡ = I (alternative)
} = J (alternative)
> = M (Monospaced)
{ = r (shortened arm)
` = S (alternative)
§ = W (alternative)
~ = y (extended foot)
