This is my little contribution to the fantastic recovering universe
called LETTERS OP MAAT by the great @Sed4tives about the typographic world of the dutch artist and typographer Jurriaan Schrofer. Btw, I sincerely apologize to @Sed4tives for the undue delay and the time it took to publish this exciting addition to his magnificent series (I'm sure he thought I'd forgotten, didn't he, comp4ñero?). Hope you like and enjoy these two fonts in one.

GUIDE TO FIND GLYPHS:
- Curved left unicase: A to Z + Ç, Ñ, Æ, Œ.
- Curved right unicase: a to z + ç, ñ, æ, œ.
- Curved left numbers: 0 to 9.
- Curved right numbers: for 0 type %, 1=<, 2= =, 3=>, 4=[, 5=], 6={, 7=|, 8=}, 9=^.
- Other curved left glyphs like ., , , ”, ’, ', ?, !, @, $, &, (, ) and -: in their own glyphs, plus :=/.
- Other curved right glyphs: ”=“, ’=‘, '=", @=*, &=#, -=+, .=:, ,=;, $=`,:=\, ?=¿, !=¡, (=_, )=~...
... The work still in progress (diacritics in the oven)...
An earlier (1926) constructed alphabet from Jan Tschichold, based on a somewhat finer grid and a slightly less condensed uppercase and a bolder appearance overall.
With a caps-height of 17, reproducing some diagonals proved quickly to be between nightmarish and impossible, thus the fidelity is a bit less exact than my previous recreation.
For a digitisation that encompass both designs and offers proper alternates, you can look at Peter Wiegel’s Tschichold.
This is a clone of Quick and Easy r0This italic was more difficult to build than I espected (especially the glyphs K, M, S, X, g, k, x, 2, 5, 6, 8, ß and a few others). There are still shapes that are very hard to achieve using the current FontStruct's tools... but nothing is completely impossible if you dedicate the time to it, the results are often surprising. So it also took me much more time to complete the entire character set, but I'm happy about the final aspect of the font: it looks curiously forceful, positive and fresh at the same time, and I like it, despite not being 100% happy with some glyphs. Kerning isn't finished. Suggestions are welcome, folks. This is my 2024 font for Xmas: Happy holidays to you and yours, dear Rob Meek and all the FontStructors wherever you are!
Inspired by INVASION BLOCK (by the great Upixel), but right slanted, with more glyphs added (206 in total) and some of the originals slightly retouched.
Initially inspired by SB Standard font (2013, Craig Staiton) with many modifications and recreated glyphs... And made to saving half the ink when you print your text with it, which is very important in today's times, you know :))
I can't superate chocomotion by four (❤️!), but I'm trying my own soft approach to the 3lines font design world. Hope you like this attempt to clarify from my to-do list. Btw: feedback about the design or aesthetics of some Cyrillic characters would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, people.
The NUMBERS were the origin: This font has been created from the design of glyphs 0, 2 and 4, which was then extrapolated to the rest of the characters. Unicase with alternates. Thanks @AidenFont for the vertical stripes idea.
My little personal and humble tribute to our Astonishing FontStruct on its 16th birthday, full of admiration and respect for the Great Creator & Big Chief Rob Meek and all fontstructors, big and small, who used it during these amazing years! LONG LIVE FONTSTRUCT!!!
It's silly (but I couldn't get it out of my head): This is the font inside zignbox. Absolute negative space use. Unicase with alternates, of course. But it works well!.
This is a clone of zignbox eYe/FSGr4ftY presents:
Bolden
Just a simple bold font.
feel free to give critique, as long as you have something helpful to say.
i would especially appriciate help with the greek.
thanks:
to @Kiên Trung for helping with the Υ

I am very proud and happy that I have been awarded a staff pick starfish. ⭐️

My ratings dropped from 9.10 to 8.57??? omg these trolls are ANNOYING
( it is now 9.15 so yay :) thx ACSFM )
@AFontAbove No, this is Patrick.
A sans serif display unpretencious font with a slightly futuristic touch. Readable even at pixel size, although its legibility decreases somewhat when used for long stretches of continuous text. "ff" and "tt" ligatures available.
PS: My huge thanks to Sed4tives for his much appreciated help.
Made with the well-known Grafilone typeface (by Bo Berndal) in mind, but more elongated and avoiding its curious roughness. In addition to the basic set of glyphs, some special ones have been added and the Cyrillic alphabet has also been included. The ligatures "ff" and "tt" are located on the characters "ff", "fi" and "fl". Enjoy it, please.
This is just a silly unicase font with alternates, made with simple squares and triangles (and some few other bricks)... But the colours captivated me. I hope you like the result. PS: You can also find an additional colour space (if you need it) in the "|" glyph.
