ELEVATED - A large 3D outline shadow display typeface.

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

Enjoy!

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.

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!

MARTIAN AMBASSADOR - a quirky alien looking typeface.

What first started as a tryout to make entire glyphs within a single composite brick quickly got out of hand. lol

Each glyph was designed on a 2x2 grid by way of composite stacking. Lowercase and superscript characters are single brick composites.

Viewed in the fontstruct preview many glyphs do not show clean edges because I heavily made use of composite bricks and stacks on a small grid. However, these irregularities are not really present in the actual TrueType Font.

Style variation in the SEMIOTICA type family.

A type family based on the lettering seen on the book cover of "Semiotica - Journal of the International Association for Semiotic Studies" published by Mouton. The letters and book cover were originally designed by "Jurriaan Schrofer".

As usual I completed the alphabet plus numerics and added numerous punctuations.

FABRICON-CAST is another style variation within the FABRICON family.

This style was inspired by metal casting and apart from some minor varriations I made to the punctuations it's very similar to the other styles in this family. Except that unlike the other styles this one will not combine seemlessly with the rest.

Modernism alphabet

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!

Simple constructivism inspired typeface.

Sort of a semi recap of the lettering found on the second issue of Polish avant garde architectural magazine called "PRAESENS".

It got published throughout the first part of the previous century and was similar to other magz from that era such as: DeStijl, Wendingen & Het Overzicht.

It's not super accurate but still a fairly recognizable and cool looking type.  I already made a pro version of this lettering in the past with FontLab Studio, which closely capturing the exact original design.

A little constructivism stencil typeface.

It's been a while since I last revisited the works of "Jurriaan Schrofer".

So here is another one by the late great Dutch graphical designer.

Inspired by the many different avant garde modernist expressionism movements of early nineteenth century Europe. Amsterdam-School in particular.

And another mazed piece!

Another Maze design!

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.)

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"
