I updated and improved my previously published third recap in the series to attempt to re-create some of the works from late great dutch graphic designer "Jurriaan Schrofer".
As extra I added a period plus comma.
I hope you like it.
AVANT-GARDE i10 (Regular) - Modular stencil type system
═════════════════════════════════════
Another revival of the works originally designed by great dutch graphic designer Jurriaan Schrofer
The original source for this fontStruction was the cover of 1963 paperback: "i10 de internationale avant-garde tussen de twee wereldoorlogen"
by Lehning, Arthur & Jurriaan Schrofer

This is a optimized re-entry of my very first fontstruct entry. Which was in loving memory of "Jurriaan Schrofer". it was a attempt to re-create a alphabet from late great dutch graphic designer "Jurriaan Schrofer".
Unfortunatly the first entry that I published had some imperfections, and which for the most part were removed in this version.
No true uppercase glyph set for this style (yet), and the only small difference between the Uc and Lc strings is the dot above (i j).

AVANT-GARDE i10 (Tiles) - Tiled modular type system
═════════════════════════════════════
Another revival of the works originally designed by great dutch graphic designer Jurriaan Schrofer
The original source for this fontStruction was the cover of 1963 paperback: "i10 de internationale avant-garde tussen de twee wereldoorlogen"
by Lehning, Arthur & Jurriaan Schrofer
═════════════════════════════════════
I provided the (A-Z, Uc & Lc) basic latin character set, numerals, basic punctuations & symbols. Some of the symbols could still use slight improvements though. But the grid/brick system parameters did pose some tough limitations in regard to the allowed complexity.
The quality of the font preview shown above by FS's website is very poor and inacurate due to the combination of brick size filter (0.90-0.90), very small incisions and composite bricks. Best you'll check the sample image bellow in the comment section.

FRUNTSTOCT UPPER — FontStruct logotype uppercase reinvention
═══════════════════════════════════
This second font is the next evolution in my take on the Fontstruct logo type.
Its an experimental approach towards the reinvention of its uppercase letters. The first one was a unicase minuscule that was aimed at creating an improved version of the original logo lettering concept. FRUNTSTOCT LOWERremained faithful to the original letters, whereas FRUNTSTOCT UPPER is a complete reimagining.
Motivation behind the complete overhaul came after checking out existing Structurosa entries by other Fontstruct members.
It became evident that only one or two members truly were able to build upon its original concept and could come up with a 'unique' and decent majuscule.
AT Archistruct Outline by Kassymkulov (aka Architaraz) being the clear winner in my opinion. — Which is a true masterpiece !!
Some others 'tried' to be original, and made an attempt at a personalized lettering, but couldn't solidify ideas into a consistent whole. But the majority simply copied rob's original design.
— For that reason I choose to take the alternative road and tried to come up with something new.
I hope you like it..

Prajna is a Sanskrit word meaning wisdom, understanding, insight. Simple on the outside, with some depth on the inside. Looks like it could be 1:1 bricks, but it actually uses a 1.5 sized brick width, giving it additional curvature that wouldn't be possible on a 1:1 scale.
I was supposed to release this a year ago, synchronous to the Peace 2.0 sculpture that was publicly unveiled which utilized Prajna to spell out "Peace" in 12 different languages. I like to think that since the sculpture was written with Prajna, it has a literal connection with wisdom, understanding and insight. I release it now with the hope that you may write with Prajna of your own.
BACK TO THE FRAKTUR - Modular geometric calligraphic blackletter
============================================
Calligraphy inspired design, that even though it's name can be deceptive, suggesting one in thinking it is a Fraktur derivative. Which is actually quite not the case, and as far as being a calligraphic Blackletter inspired work, the similarities between the two stop.
This is a heavily simplified and geometric take on the calligraphic style, with much more modernized letterforms as well.
It remains a WIP, but I'd love to hear what u think so far.
Cheers
