it all started with a weird exclamation mark idea

This bold, swirling font draws its inspiration from the theme of 'Protect'. Within this theme, I looked into how people use crystals to protect their aura, soul, and mental and physical health. I thought about the contrasts that crystals have - smooth, curved and polished but also jagged and rough. I created pixelated curves using fontruct bricks to emulate this as well as adding the 'shine' that crystals give off. 

This typeface is inspired by the 1970’s and draws from groovy and retro psychadelic aesthetic of the iconic decade. The capital letters have much more pronounced swirls and a more bubbly feeling than the lowercase ones. Since lowercase letters appear more often, they were designed to be more simple and legible than the capitals.
