A remastered version of the classic lettering by "Theo Van Doesburg" for avant garde architectural magazine "De Stijl".
So, rather than a replica of the original, this is a 2018 view of the classic letters. It still follows the global contour of the original letters but instead of being stenciled it features solid glyphs.
Typeface design inspired by brand logo of British consumer electronics company "Sinclair Research Ltd."
The entire typeface was build exclusively around the already existing eight letters that make up their logo.
I have no clue on wether a complete typeface ever was made, or that someone has tried this before. So far I have never stumbled upon one yet , not even in their official product ads and brochures.
Enjoy!
Attempt to recap the classic lettering by "Theo Van Doesburg" for avant garde architectural magazine "De Stijl".
Apart from some small variations I made between a couple of upper and lower case characters the two are mostly copies!
- Okay, this requires a little bit of heads-on info first, to prevent any misunderstanding.
It's a attempt to struct the (I think) pretty well known typeface
"Cyber Monkey"
by none other than Fontspring founder & Fonthead Design Inc.'s:
- Ethan Dunham.
The original typeface by Ethan has been around quite some time and has been used a lot over the years in various of my design projects.
The original Cyber Monkey digital typeface by Dunham was commercially published back in 1998 by Fonthead Design and can still be purchased online via multiple font shops.
My fontstruction, despite its notable clear resemblances is by no means meant to commercially violate or abuse the original intellectual property of Dunham.
About Cyber Wolf (my fontstruction)
Actually it came into existance when I was fooling around in the editor and was building some ideas on chord-like letters. (And since I dont know a lot of typefaces in this style) I soon realized that through most of the time I kept on structing letters that I could sort of remember from Ethan's typeface. so I tried working from that point out to guide, but absolutely did not lead anywhere. lol
So I decided to quit the whole idea and turned the project into a fontstruction that heavily copied Ethan's Cyber Monker typeface to begin with!
It's not a real recap or accurate copy of the original, but does show striking similarities.
Enjoy none the less!

A recap of the lettering by "Fre Cohen". And as additional supplement I attempted to complete the entire alphabet plus some punctuations.
In loving memory of the great Dutch graphical designer Frederika Sophia (Fré) Cohen(August 11, 1903 – June 14, 1943).
Extrapolation of the lettering found on a 1976 calender by Wim Crouwel.
I know this has already been done before, here is one that was done by Wilson Thomas. Who did a far more extensivey version that also includes extended Latin. Check his version out here: https://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/795855/kalendar_1976
Apart from a couple of glyphs that were done notably different and some other tiny differences in detais the two are pretty similar, but most certainly not copied.
Recap of a retro computer type lettering that appeared throughout the 70's and 80's as the word "data" on various brochures, envelopes and memo's by Dutch multinational human resource consulting firm Randstad. Most of which I guess were designed by Ben Bos.
A display typeface that revisits the classic Randstad alphabet originally designed by Ben Bos in 1969 working at Total Design. Some changes have been made to a number of characters and letter spacing in order to improve the overal ballance and legibility. In other words, more a semi-recap rahter than a exact replica.
Inspired by the lettering found on a vintage sheet music cover art for "La Java bousculée" released in 1924. Cover illustration and letters are designed by "Robert Laroche".
I attempted to complete the alphabet and numeral plus some punctuations!
A tribute to Belgian modernist artist "Jozef Peeters" (Antwerp, 1895 - 1960).
He is probably best known for contributions to legendary Belgian avant garde magazines "Het Overzicht" and "DeDriekhoek".
The alphabet I made is based on the letters seen on the folder art for his 1921 linocut portofolio.
(I made use of a couple of lower case letters to make slight variations similar as seen on the original artwork but most lower case are simply copied from the upper case letters.)
