The first of my font family "New Build". Inspired by my typeface "convention", i am looking to create a modern, architectural feel, with an interesting difference. More wieghts and measures are in the pipeline, although this has taken a lot of patience!

I am looking forward to the siblings of this font. Have you concidered making diacritics for it?

Thanks guys. CMunk, I am planning to make some diactitics for it, im interrested in using more diacritics in the english language, as i am english! I would like to make some interresting ligatures for the font also. betweeen letters such as e and r uppercase, where they look like they could join.

My native language - Danish - has very few diacritics, but we do have three extra letters (æ, ø and å) and ocasionally we use the acute (´). The English language could use some diacritics, I'm sure that a lot have tried making an orthography with diacritics.

But please go on with those ligatures, they would be ideal for this font.

What to say? I just can't find adjectives. Your letters are very refreshing to see. They are imbibed with a great deal of originality, play and fun. I can't help, but to repeat myself: it's a shining smile of your mind. 10/10
