Sans Vs Serif was done for my Graphic Design course. It is built around the idea of chaos and fuses characters from Georgia and Futura Italic, one sans-serif, one serif.

Inspired by the word repetition, 'Rerun' was designed with the idea of having a zigzag baseline that would run throughout the typeface. I wanted to create characters that would fit neatly alongside each other. This is most predominate in the uppercase, which fits together in a tessellating pattern.This is a clone

Altered sound is an abstract display font.
It has been designed based around the theme 'loud' with inspiration taken from musical notes and old school hand drawings. Its mainly a top heavy font and has a distinctive retro look to it. There is high contrast between the top block areas and the thinned out parts of each letter. There are also very unique qualities, such as the diagonal and horizontal lines that run through some letters.
This font would suit an old gangster film poster or maybe and retro comic book.

The Mess Around has been developed to express a creative overload. Exuberant mark-making leads to the hand rendered fast paced style typeface. Perfect to reflect a heavy handed note taker!

Designed as part of a university project. I studied ornate Circus and Carnival style lettering which often incorporate intricate detailing within the letters. I have attempted to blend a particular lattice pattern with blackletter-style letter forms.

This is my second fontstruction for a project during the first term of my study in Graphic Design at UWE.
I have based this typeface on a similar (un-named) font that has been found in a Typefounders Catalogue dated before 1955, I really liked a lot of the ornate qualities and decided to bring this forgotten typeface into the modern day by replicating features of it through this digital medium.

I am a first year student at the University of the West of England, and our first assignment was to create a font based around a chosen word, mine being repetition. My research involved searching the city of Bristol for any signs of repeated patterns, and as I found, pattern is everywhere. I developed my findings into this bold and detailed font.

A project dealing with the subject of order for UWE's communicating with words project at degree graphic design. Inspiration coming from the traffic system, in particular the way that junctions have been designed to direct traffic and keep order at the same time.

A typeface created as part of our first project on the Graphic Design course at UWE. The project was to centre a typeface around a theme and to create the typeface on Fontstruct. My chosen theme was Motion. I chose to use the motion of water for the basis of my project and used its properties to distort and disfigure popular serif typefaces. After many experiments with baths, basins and trips to the local fountains Alphawet was created.

This font is my first project while studying Graphic Design at UWE.
The theme is order, the direction I took was inspired by universal symbols, how they bring order into our lives and what impact that has.
When we see a symbol its message is clear almost instantaneously. For example, the gents, it is a world where words are not fundamental or at all useful. Symbols also take us back to the roots of communication, to a world where words simply don’t exist. By using words and symbols I wanted to show a relationship between the universal symbols and the written word, through presenting a complete juxtaposition. What do we rely on more, words or symbols?
This symbol-filled dot matrix style typeface is easy to read and has a continuous flow from upper to lower case to numbers and punctuation.

Living in the shadows. Many children during the second world war were forced to hide for their lives, in dark confined spaces and remain extremely quiet, sometimes for months. My fontstruct typography 'scattered light' was created as part of a design brief given by UWE bristol, the theme followed the word shadow, and thought out the development of the font i looked at the light and shadows created as well as the rays or holes of light that would make it through small gaps. This was sometimes all the light they would see. I've tried to replicate this and take further inspiration from the decayed walls photographed after the war. The font is white on a black background, to symbolize the shadows/darkness they lived in. The font resembles scattered light and decayed surfaces from that period in time.

the font is a respond to a project for my graphic design course. The theme I've chosen is lazy. The whole idea is based on the 'bad' handwriting that people have when they are lazy. The position of the body when we are bored don't allow us to write with our best handwriting so we leave parts of the letters unfinished. Those are the parts I cut out from my font. Also, it has a double meaning. Letters, themselves, are to lazy to complete, so they remain 'unfinished'. The font now looks more like something technological mathematical thing. It also remind me codes and messages.This is a clone

This font is based around the theme 'pompous' I aimed to combine both tradition and modern relations to the meaning and create a bold typeface.

This is my first fontstruct design which i have done while studying at UWE. It comes from the idea of leaves decaying in the Autumn and how parts of them breakaway as time goes on. This is only my first draft of the type face and its not completely finished yet so comments are appreciated.

Based on the theme of "order" my typeface is inspired by the aspects I have found within the structure of a tool such as, hinges and bolts. I got this idea when looking at the order involved in construction. A lot of adjustments are needed including the spacing. Any comments, suggestions or constructive criticism would be great!

This typeface is based around the theme of decay. I was looking into how society and the world is decaying through pollution and such which then lead me to look into the after affects of pollution and waste, what does it look like? I started to burn some materials and photograph them throughout the proccess, I was then able to make letter forms from the imagery I had collected. This is a clone

Typeface created on the idea of decay, taking a more unusual approach rather than the stereotypical idea of decay. Inspired by minimalist ideology, the idea of stripping back the unneeded/ not essential, to create a minimal typeface highlighting decay with the removal of parts of each letter. Pictorial possibility to the typeface inspired by typographic works from the Futurist movement.

I created this typeface after looking at old arcade games and this lead me to be influenced by the game ‘snake’. I focused on the movements made by the snake in the game, and created each piece around these movements. I designed the typeface for my ‘Communicating With Words’ project in first year Graphic Design at UWE Bristol.

(WORK IN PROGRESS)
A simple experimental display typeface based upon the theme of repetition and continuity created for my course at UWE. I drew inspiration from the literal idea of repetitive geometry and patterns. (Due to the limitations of fontstruct some manual spacing may be needed when being used.)

My first FontStruction through UWE, based on the keyword 'squishy'. Initially, my research consisted of squishy items, producing very illustrative, specific results. However, I decided to experiment by folding printed letters. From this, I wanted to find a way to express tension created within letterforms and concluded with 'Discordion', to create such a disagreement between serifs and interior letter structure.This is a clone of Discordion Outline

This font was created as part of a Graphic Design project at UWE, it’s based around the theme of Fluidity, I have taken inspiration from the flow water takes as it moves through water systems. The hollow inners on the letters are representing reflection inspired by bubbles and waters surface. My hand drawn sketches incorporated more natural & wider curves that I struggled to transfer on to fontstruct so was forced to simplify it because of the time schedule. I am currently still developing the font into something more elaborate that portrays the theme of fluid better, experimenting with tone and more ambitious ideas.
All feedback is appreciated
