Starting from the word fluid I developed this font with the aim of incorporating several characteristics pertaining to the word itself. Each letter in the font flows from one to the next; a sense of motion continuing throughout. I looked at surface tension on liquids and tried to make the shape of the font reflect the constraints of this tension. I especially looked at wax turning from liquid to solid and the rigid shape it formed. It's quite simplistic so I would like to work more with it to see how I can include more texture that could link with the light reflections on the surface.

My first attempt at Fontstruct for my project at The University of the West of England. This font is based on the theme word that I chose, Dynamic. I decided to look at the city and went with the idea of contrasting angles. I began by creating a simple base character then modified it to suit my theme.
