Another Maze design!

Modernism alphabet

Fourth recap in a series to attempt to re-create some of the works from late great dutch graphic designer "Jurriaan Schrofer".

I hope you like it.

A piece of constructivism inspired by Dutch artistic movement "De Stijl".

And another mazed piece!

Impossible geometric letters, inspired by who other than M.C. Escher.

Uppercase letters and partial punctuations only.

Enjoy!

A typeface inspired by the brand logo of French company Tefal.

An attempt to recreate the lettering seen on a early 1900's poster ad for "Van Nelle" coffee.

(Uppercase only!)

ELEVATED (REWORK) - A large 3D outline display typeface design with shadow effect.

It's inspired by the lettering from a sketch by great Dutch graphical designer "Jurriaan Schrofer".

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

This is the long overdue shadow style variant which was requested by Goatmeal and elmoyenique. It has the diagonal shading lines included (as was also presented in the original sketch by Jurriaan Schrofer)

Due to the inexperience that I had in my early days of FontStructing and the lack of proper knowledge about raster scaling, I faced some serious issues regarding the correct size distribution. This had me unable to include the diagonal lines properly into that pre-existing font with them having equal seporation and white space througout the entire design.

So instead of making a clone of my previously published version "STF_ELEVATED" and include the shadow font variant into that family as a seporate FontStruction (like I did with most other style variations back then), I decided to rebuild the full font. Putting it all together into this single re-worked font version.

This re-work has some important differences compared to the previous version. The first one, another size to grid ratio which optimizes the size distribution for digital display as well as drastically reduces the overall glyph size (more accurate version forthcoming). Some extra characters were added to the set, making it a slightly more functional basic font.

The shadow effect is the default style for this font, this also includes all numerals, punctuation marks and other symbols that make up the full font, these occupy the uppercase. The bare outline style A-Z glyphs occupy the lowercase.

Enjoy!

MY "COUNTER" COMPETITION ENTRY.

The idea was to make a minimalism type without any counters at all, hence the name: "DON'T COUNT ON ME".

It's size is tiny (only 2x4 units) but that didn't cut the fun!

Another tribute to the great Dutch graphical designer/pioneer "Jurriaan Schrofer".

This time I didn't do a straight foreward recap of a specific work from the great man, but rather had myself inspired by a number of his sketches and combined those ideas all into this type! (Nonetheless ofcourse still heavily inspired by..)

Here are a few of the original works I drawn inspiration from:

"A.S.C. COMMUNICATIONS, SEMINOTICS, SIGNAGE SYSTEM PTT 1975 (Dutch Post Office) , BEURS VAN BERLAGE, UNREADABLE ALPHABET"

A piece of constructivism inspired by Dutch artistic movement "De Stijl".

 A large folded multiline display typeface design. I stopped working on it for now since it really started to become heavier on the resources, probably because of its dimensions. 

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.)
