This is a monolinear hairlined sans-serif typeface inspired by Art-Deco-ish classic modern and old ultra narrow typeface designs that evoked a feeling of sophistication and luxury..
A condensed slim & elegant style that has this classy look. The tall upper-case evokes elegance and it's asymmertical high- / low- waist distribution.

NICE LEGS was built using simple geometric shapes to make clean and legible letterforms. The super tall uppercase letters and the low x-height,
making this an eccentric, yet elegant san-serif type

— “Condensed, slim & stylish tall glyphs with that classy look that evoke elegance”.

It's asymmetric high- / low- waist positioning gives the lettering a distinct retro look & bohemian feeling that is great for logos & branding, packaging, titles, magazines, posters, signs, and scrapbooking.

As far as it is a clean looking font, it is not designed for large amounts of Body Copy text. It does work at small size, but it is perfect for branding , logos, and posters.

This font comes in both Capital & Lower letter cases. It's also equipped with many other charaters, such as; Ligatures, Numbers, Punctuation Marks, Accented Latin and a supply of special characters

It’s a minimalist sans-serif, delicate and romantic! The smooth and light execution of it’s clean and sharp lines making this font look sleek and elegant, feminine which is perfect for modern fashionable branding designs.

A condensed font with visual elegance, and smooth curves that make your work look true and attractive. Making this a perfect sans suitable to a wide variety of designs due to its neat and simple style.

More details soon

PS: I'm still working on kerning the font...

SEADWELLERS — 1920s Art-Deco Sans style
═══════════════════════════════════
I was somewhat inspired to do a Art-Deco style lettering of my own after seeing the stylish Art-Deco flavored FontStruction Aquamarine by IronClaws

Other than that the two fonts remain unrelated and Seadwellers poses no resemblance to Aquamarine. Instead I sort of did a 1920s Art-Deco style lettering with thin geometric letterforms. It's comes as a Majuscule only and the letters have nice quirky width variations, with some letters appearing almost extended, while others are more narrow.
— The similar aqua-themed concept is merely coincidental.

Only basic character set!

It remains a WIP for now..

Cheers

STF_NEUE ISAIAH - 70's Art Deco / Streamline style typeface
══════════════════════════════════
Most of the design credits for this font should go toIsaiah Garciasince I took the liberty of revisiting her fontstructionFS Idea

Please check out this member's awesome contributions here:Ivy Meadows (Isaiah Garcia)
══════════════════════════════════
[THE PROCESS]
The one major difference between the two works is the grid size and construction method, Isaiah's version was made using a faux-Bézier approach (very labour intensive) and requires a fairly large design grid, whereas my version is a small grid design, utilizing the circle arc bricks and composites to achieve smoother contour quality, and was done on just a 4x7 grid using 2:2 filter.

This different approach and limitations in small grid designs have led to a number of small changes for certain glyphs. Also have I change some details slightly to my personal preference. But it remains very much Isaiah's design.
══════════════════════════════════
[THE FONT]
I tried to remain as faithful to the original font as possible, and in addition tried to further expand the character set. Most important differences made in my revision are the additional lowercase chatacter set (spurred strokes), the uppercase alternative forms / lowercase alternative forms (spurless) and extra symbols.

Enjoy!

OBLONGUS - Modern light weight monolinear geometric sans
════════════════════════

■  Description:
Light weight monolinear geometric sans.

■  Design summary:
One of the most striking features is it's overall well ventilated, light weight and spacious appearence. Some other key features are the glyph's elongated ascenders and descenders. These give the font a somewhat condensed and stretched look. An additional side effect of this is the extra empty vertical space above and bellow a line of text. Contributing even some more to the already ventilated character of the design.
Another key feature are the stylish rounded forms and novel long spurs. I tried to find elegance in it's simplicity, the decorative elements, turns and twists were all done in a very gentle but clearly present manner. All working together these elements give the font a very welcoming, friendly and laid-back vibe. Extra's, such as glyph alternatives will help spicing things up even a bit more.
So, while trying to remain simplistic in nature the font does have some nice stylistic appeal for sure.

DER ZiiLTED - Neo-Grotesk italic hairline sans
════════════════════════════════════════════

[ DESCRIPTION ]
The design is a simplistic slanted geometric hairline letterform with stylistic tapered spurs. Some extra glyph alternates were included to spice up this otherwise boring font, making it a little bit less boring.

The "DER ZIILTED" name was inspired by a poorly English speaking German person that is saying "The Tilted" in English but with a bad German emphasis on the phonetic sound of it hence 'der ziilted'
════════════════════════════════════════════

[ INSIDE THIS FONT ]
■  Basic latin character set with only essential punctuation marks
■  Stylistic alternates
         • Double storey  lowercase 'a' & 'g'
         • Spurless lowercase forms (still in trial stage and likely will change)
════════════════════════════════════════════

[ TECHNICAL ]
     ■  Metrics(in square grid units)
         • em-square:                 11 × 4.5
         • cap-height:                   8
         • x-height:                      6
         • ascent:                          2
         • descent:                        3
         • optical compensation:   ☒
         • stroke weight:               0.25

Nearly no kernig was done yet, but will be done at a later stage, since I'm 99.9% sure about having screwed up protocol for glyph 'side-bearings' in Italic fonts. (Still figuring out how exactly this should be handled properly, so stick with me on this matter..)
════════════════════════════════════════════

[ PROCESS ]
Let's start with mentioning that only recently I was still tested 'Very Green' for Italic genetic material (found 0.01%).
I have very little experience doing Italic designs in general, having done only a hand full of trials, and completed only a couple. This is actually only the third 'true' Italic font that I have ever made with Fontstruct, and the second one (I think) that got published. Don't ask me why it took me about 5 years to finally do another, but, let me tell you this; Looking back at it after doing this font — "I now know why". This was tough to say the least.
I can imagine designing Italic fonts in general comes with it's own set of challenges of course. Doing this in Fontstruct only adds numerous challenges on top of that — "what else is new, right?!" Nothing that wasn't expected for the most part. But "holy frog on a leopard", what do I absolutely positively very much regret the choice to do so in such a small stroke weight. This stripped away every possible tollerance and free space for finetuning and making finalizing adjustments to minute little details required to perfecting everything (curvatures, transitions, slants and optical compensation).

I did the best I could to get visual aesthetics at least acceptable, and somewhat complete enough character set for basic latin text. There remain some small imperfections present for now that still need to get addressed.

For example I started experimenting with trying to achieve acceptable optical compensations such as overshoot. For now I only temporarily applied this to the experimental 'spurless' glyph alternate set for trial testing purpose, looking for acceptable results. And only once I found all the necessary solutions for each requisite glyph I transfer these adjustments one by one to the main character set. But all options remain open for the time being, it might so happen that in a later stage I decide not to implement them after all.

The 'spurless' glyph alternates will remain included to the project, but in what final form for now remains uncertain.

So from a typographer's point of view the font surely will look very basic and perhaps even simplistic. But looking at it from a Fontstructor's perspective, this was a lot more than just the average walk in the park for me.

But to be honest, I doubt I will do another Italic Fontstruction any time soon,haha

I hope you like it so far.

Schlanke Schöne is a tall condensed geometric sans serif typeface.

=======================================================

The idea behind this font was to experiment with making interresting letterforms, with fewest possible resources. In other words, fewest possible default core bricks, no filters and mostly without expert mode. The only expert mode function I did use was "stack" bricks to make a small number of resized compositions and composite sloped angles. The total amount of different bricks used in the font is 20.

The font design is a simple, fairly straight forward looking sans, but due to this the end result also is pretty legible and clean. I was able to get most of the features done within the design parameters, such include optical correction, diacritics, stylistic alternates and swash capitals.

Very simple, but playful fun...

The stylistic alternates and swash capitals have been stored in the "Halfwidth and Fullwifth Forms" unicode block.

Hope you like it,

cheers

STF_CARE SENSITIVE - A modern hairline sans style typeface.

=================================================

design grid: 3,5 × 4,5 units

brick size filter: 2 × 2

stroke weight: 1/8

=================================================

I tried to incorporate rounded letter parts and corners but this was very tricky to pull off with this thin stoke weight. The font works best at small size due to very small imperfctions.

I hope you like it nonetheless!

STF_BODIDONE - Classic Didone style display serif.

Ahh sadly due to repeatedly running into a corrupted font when I save newly made changes to it, it eventually catched up with me and tested the limit of my patience.

I have had to painstakingly restore the font 5 times already since I started it.

So I stopped including new characters as well as making new changes to its existing character set. (At least for now)

Too bad because I wouldve loved to see this truly getting finalized.

So at this stage there are still a number of characters that remain in rough condition, and had yet to be further optimized.

The main A-Z alphabet luckily already was close to how I invisioned it, but especially the numerals, symbols and accents still have some rough edges.

Now, forgetting all that, I still think it is not a bad font at all. Everything is there for most common Western-European languages, somewhat still making this a usable font that I shouldn't be keeping in private!

I hope that despite my bad luck this time, y'all still like it.

================================================

About this Font:

The idea was to make a classic Didone style display serif that is meant for making clean headline text similar to those often seen in older magazines or newspapers. I set out trying to design a semi-bold & slight expanded looking letterform with thin hairline serifs and strokes. I choose a large grid scale for the extra freedom in custom shaping this provides.

================================================

Technique I used in this design:

This font in particular I have experimented with working within a "(asymmetrical-) Grid Scale ratio" ( 1,5:1 ), so, changing only the value for the Horizontal grid scale. (This distorts the grid aspect ratio, and is a great way to discover and experiment with getting new forms and shapes).

The 1,5 : 1 ratio was specifically choosen to keep maths simple, in order to rebuild certain required bricks that build specific slope angles , such as a 45° (which is no longer possible to make from the FS default brick set when using asymmetric scale ratios, unless making composites).

But what this also does is opening up a totally new approach to making shapes, and..becoming quite a surprisingly easy shortcut to get unusual shapes or make variations on these, even with as little as just the rotation of the bricks/selection. (thanks to the distorted aspect ratio)  :-).

This is a must try for those who are into large grid designs, fake curves or interrested in experimenting around a little.

Enjoy!
