This Fonstruction was created in my first year studying graphic design at UWE. The design brief was to create a typeface using the key word; 'ornate'. I have taken heavy influence from gothic fonts and architecture, looking in particular at religion and religious texts. For more information please visit my website at http://wasteofpaper.co.uk/wordpress I welcome all comments and constructive criticism, thank you :)]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/560826/apostle_xiii Wed, 09 Nov 2011 12:58:22 +0000
Ignore it, you see only a few lines. ( :D )]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/489593/just_lines Sun, 22 May 2011 17:11:35 +0000
Redesigning the pixel font. Built on a 50x30 grid, this masterpiece is a pixel font that is decomposing. Enjoy! Each "pixel" is 10 by 10 grid squares. The idea was from "Metropolis" by ackfla.]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/488578/pixels_redefined Sat, 21 May 2011 01:30:43 +0000

OK. Here's "VUVUZELA" A typeface inspired by the continent of africa, but mainly by the WorldCup of soccer 2010 in South Africa! To catch on of the strongest associations for me relating to africa, i chose black and white stripes, maybe to remind of zebras or other animal patterns. But the effect also stands for the "swoosh" of a ball flyin by, for just the the "sporty" feel i wanted it to have. Enjoy it. There's an alternative "a" on "=" cheers kix ]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/335589/fs_vuvuzela Thu, 17 Feb 2011 20:26:27 +0000
An ongoing experiment fusing perfection with imperfection, this is my attempt to use the limitations of fontstruct as an aesthetic in and of itself, without resorting to an enormous grid to create an optically smoothed typeface. Still working on spacing and filling out the character set. Three new weights are on the way ... bold, light, and thin ... late 2012?]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/439140/undrcrnt_sans_medium Tue, 08 Feb 2011 05:46:58 +0000

the file that contained the original glyph - B - was started back in late Oct 2009, so this one has taken me some time to finish :)]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/427026/toothpaste_of Mon, 24 Jan 2011 18:14:02 +0000

This one is based on kolam. kolam is an art of floor drawing, which is prevalent in South India. The lines are interesting to see. The lines form longer loops. With few loops interesting patterns can be formed. Sometimes a single line can compose a kolam. Decoration is not the sole purpose of kolam. Traditionally kolam is drawn with dry rice powder. And it is said to invite other small creatures to eat it. Everyday a new kolam is drawn.]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/406400/en_pulli_kolam Mon, 29 Nov 2010 15:52:28 +0000

This typeface has been created based on the theme 'Vibration'. I tried out a wide range of experimentation when it came to producing hand rendered work, as I felt I needed to work out what would best capture the general sense of the word. I tried using inks on elastic bands, attaching pens to a playstation controller and drawing, photographing food colouring over a speaker; all sorts. Finally, I decided I needed something which really reflected the word clearly. I looked at the white noise and the trails that you get on the television, and applied this feel to a sans serif font I had made based on Georgia (minus the Serifs) One of the most time comsuming things I've ever done, hope its been worth it. Any comments welcome.]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/399227/viiberz Tue, 09 Nov 2010 13:48:38 +0000
This is my first fontsruction since studying at Uwe. I started looking at decay before looking into wood decay and the fungi and mushrooms that grow from it. Here I have make each letter resemble a mushroom.]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/391855/mushaboom Tue, 09 Nov 2010 03:27:17 +0000
This font was inspired by the word chaos. Initially to me chaos meant incoherent mess, but after looking at chaos theory i began looking at ways to order chaos. To show this in my font I have used a regimented typeface with repeated ideas of thick and thin lines, but juxtaposed this restriction by forming the letters with chaotic scribbles. ]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/398447/pandemonium Tue, 09 Nov 2010 03:14:16 +0000
This is my first fontstruction, based on the theme of 'sharp'. In early development stages I looked at brambles and attempted to create a typeface that seemed naturally pointed, as opposed to industrially sharp. Also took cues from modern death metal typography. Currently no numbers or lower case due to time constraints. Any feedback would be appreciated!]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/391403/witchita Sun, 31 Oct 2010 20:08:08 +0000
One of my old designs brought up-to-date with FS 2.0 I have changed the name from 'RM Albion Too' to 'RM New Albion' because, whilst I liked the word play of the former, I thought it was a tad trite (and a bit Anglo-centric).]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/349948/rm_nova_albion Thu, 15 Jul 2010 17:33:00 +0000
Yep another blackletter. This is my first font. I Love blackletter and its formal/modular structure seemed an obvious choice for fontstruct. I wanted something kinda simple and stripped back with caps that integrated well and didn't bring too much attention to themselves. That capital N brings attention to itself...]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/331396/mister_pablo Sun, 11 Jul 2010 12:59:42 +0000
Xerro. Because it started with the o, and it looks like zero, even though there's no numerals. Another faux bezier helveticaesque looking sans serif experiment. Lowercase for now. 060310]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/333548/xerro Fri, 04 Jun 2010 06:36:27 +0000
Renovare S2. Solution 2 or Serif 2. Clone of Renovare S1. In contrast to Renovare S1, a thickening of the serif makes way for efficient curved brick usage leading to a smoother and more natural slabtastic appearance. Revamped from a corrupted version of Renovare S1 and may suffer from the same instability. Handle with care. Downloaded normally for me. Please let me know if there are any problems. Thx. 052410 Edit 011915. Cap S and lc s smoothed out using nudged bricks]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/324072/renovare_s2 Mon, 24 May 2010 19:40:07 +0000
Yesterday afternoon I was sipping Coke on a sunny terrace and thinking about life, and the universe, when an idea came out of the blue about a new stencil font. The idea was so simple, I almost felt ashamed not having it much earlier. Back home I started to work on it, and created the first set of letters. It's a work in progress, fraught with imperfections, including the usual spacing-kerning problems. Remolino is a Spanish word for vortex.]]> https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/319419/remolino_stencil Sat, 01 May 2010 02:25:18 +0000
