A combination of blackletter and building blocks. Inspired by little kid's blocks. Descenders on A,H,K,N,R are meant to be there, I felt like adding them. :) This is also my first attempt at blackletter.

Type out a new area of the Mushroom Kingdom, 1985 style! Still a work in progress but there's enough here to make a pretty cool new SMB1 level.

Block stencil typeface, during designing the letters i wanted to create a stencil type face but every letter had to have the exact vertical space in the center of it. I had rounded edges in my sketched designs but struggled to get the shape in fontstruct.

a typeface centred around the key theme/word 'shadow'. I started looking at how the time of day effected the shape and the size of the subsequent shadow cast. However, I then moved onto the ideas of bevels and a more subtle shadow effect created by raised centres of the letterforms. The 'impossible triangle' effect came from a idea that was brought up in a critique about 'extending it and making it really elaborate'. The name is chosen because I think that typefaces should have friendly names.

When be began the project on designing my own typeface, I had to design and create it relating to a specific theme. I chose to focus my design on the theme of 'Decay'.
From the beginning, I wanted to create typeface which represented a very basic idea of the the theme of Decay. I looked at all possible avenues that I could take into design consideration and ended up coming with some interesting concepts I could use.
I started looking at the idea of Decay throughout technology. I began taking photos as well as researching forms of decay in technology. The one aspect which kept coming up were computer keyboards. I found plenty of images of keyboards with decay, which then acted as a key influence for my work.
The idea for having my typeface created in the style of computer keys was quite unique to me. When in the creation process, I created the key design as well as the letter-forms which I had mapped out using graph paper. I was then to add the appearance of decay to the letter-forms afterwards.
I then started coming up with styles of decay I could incorporate into the letter-forms. I wanted to have a clear representation of the theme, but keep it in the style/representation of computers. i.e Pixels.
I messed around with one of the letter-forms with a basic pixel appearance of decay. When zoomed in, it didn't look like the standard I wanted it to be, but when zoomed out, the pixels came together to present the them in detail. I then went ahead and applied the feature to all of the letter-forms and punctuation symbols. The typeface was finally complete.

Simple letters made exciting by reversing them into white on black instead of black on white.

Stry is my first attempt to design a typeface on a modular and monospaced constraints.
This typeface was just a warm up, nothing fancy, the objective was to see if i still remembered the proportions of each letter.
Overlap different versions of Stry to get other results!
Anyway, enjoy it!(Still Under Construction)This is a clone of Stry V-Stripes

Instead of strokes through letters (such as in f, t) there's an inward tick. The name is a combination of the words "block" and "tick" or maybe "flick".
