A typeface inspired by synthwave music and the art that represents it. The late 1980's and early 1990's landscape is full of amazing creativity that would be great to build off of.

I tried to capture the unique structure the music has to its sound, which is where the block shapes come in. To compliment the music's unpredicability, I made up all the block letterforms out of a "scan-line-esque" pattern.

A font based off the text found on the old Fast Money board on the television game show Family Feud, as seen from 1988 to 1995. Similar to Fast Money One, except digits 6 and 9 look different.

This was a class project-we were to design a typeface for 1980's style arcade. I came up with this looking at pac man mazes. It is totally a display font-it doesn't work at anything less than 18 pellets. Or rather, points.
