I started looking at making a font using the theme sharp, I wanted to stay away from the obvious of making it look like sharp objects and looked at what sharp objects can do. That's how i came to this. I have taken simple letter forms and cut into them, trying to make it look like they have been cut up and put back together.

My starting point for this project was the theme evil, this naturally lead me into looking into blackletter typefaces. I then looked at how blackletter has become popular in Mexico. Especially within the urban, gangster culture, which is where i have drawn the inspirations for the majority of my final letterforms from.This is a clone

Initially inspired by origami, I started by creating tactile letterforms from a single strip of paper. I then picked out the central line of each horizontal, vertical and diagonal strip, which left me with a very simple, disjointed, linear set of glyphs. Finally I extended each line to get a 3D effect. I think the result has quite a retro futuristic feel (if you know what I mean). Definitely a display typeface. Full set of caps, incomplete lower-case and numerals, work in progress

This typeface is based on the theme decay. It references the idea of how things decay when they are forgotten and so parts of each of the letters are missing. This links to the idea it is based on the courier font which was used in the typewriter. It shows a link that once something is forgotten e.g. technology such as a type writer it starts to decay. This typeface also has reference to the ideas of the bacteria that cause decay and so hence called prokaryotes which is the term used to describe this bacteria. This font can be used as a display font for many things including gig posters etc.

Ruboku's 'Amstrad CPC Extended' was an awesome 8x8 font, but there were two or three minor flaws (strange-looking 'b', too-high 'z' etc.)
I just decided it would be nice to give it a little tweak. Also, now it is 100% fixed-width, which makes it good for coding and ASCII-art as well. Don't bother giving me credit, just give credit to Ruboku. :)This is a clone of Amstrad CPC extended

The idea for the font came from looking at the curves in Wind ornaments. The block like structure of the wood and then the spiral effect. I also looked at Wooden table arrangments that resembled wood shavings, like ribbon curls. I wanted a contiuous theme to run through and link all the glyphs together. So i used the ribbon like structure as the backbone to all the uppercase and then serifs to link the Glyffs to each other. There is also a suggestion of movement in the style, as it is italic. I kept the decorative theme as well, to stay true to the concept behind the idea. This is a display font with a limited and definate purpose.

For my font I tried searching for a new meaning to explore the theme of curves. I did this by approaching it in a different manor by looking into the value of 3D curves, for example poles. This was then developed from phone masts into the forms of aerial and radar. Its name derives from my view that the font Arial could be updated and made more exciting and I did this in a literal way, its primarily a headline font, but could also be used for logos, especially within the telecommunication industry.

Inspired from handcuffs. The idea is that each letter is a single cuff that links up to the next.

The idea of 'looking sharp' is what influenced me in this type design and the letters clean cut dynamics are designed to represent the idea of a neat appearance.

This is a font which was inspired by the sharp angles found in handrails. It mimics the shapes and structure of the bars by using tall x-heights and stretched counters.
