100 FontStruct posters are now on sale at\u00a0Etsy<\/a>. The price is 10\u20ac plus postage<\/strong> for those whose work appears on the poster, and a madly reasonable 20\u20ac<\/strong> plus postage for everyone else. All proceeds will go towards paying for the printing and admin costs. Any surplus will go towards the further development of FontStruct. You’ll find some preview images in this post.

The FontStruct Poster was created by Lorenz Fidel Huchthausen aka Tylo<\/a>, Christian Klier, and Rob Meek in Berlin in 2011. Lorenz and Christian are both students at the Kunsthochschule Wei\u00dfensee<\/a> in Berlin. The poster features 129 distinctive modular glyphs from over 80 FontStructors laid out on the FontStruct grid. The emphasis is on celebrating the more, minimal, “classical” style of FontStructing, so no FontStructions which employ filters were included. A FontStruction \u2013\u00a0Exampla Sans Medium<\/a> by Shasta<\/a> \u2013 was used for setting the key and other additional text on the poster, and proved how wonderful FontStructions can look in print if tweaked appropriately (thank you optical kerning!).<\/p>\n

A limited edition of 150 posters was printed in October 2011 on 250g matt, coated paper by Pinguin Druck in Berlin, using the offset technique. \u00a0The posters are hand-stamped and numbered on the reverse side. 100 will be sold.<\/p>\n

At 63.5cm x 100cm the posters are a few mm over “double royal” size.<\/p>\n

As mentioned above, if your work appears on the poster (see list below*) you can use the coupon code “ONTHEPOSTER” at Etsy to get a 50% discount (on one poster only!!!<\/strong>). If you’re not on the poster, the poster is still a bargain at 20\u20ac. We’re based in Germany so shipping is not cheap \u00a0(5.40\u20ac for Germany, 11.10\u20ac for the EU and \u20ac16.60 for anywhere else). We’ll throw a few FontStruct stickers into the tube to hopefully compensate a bit for that. Please use the contact button on the FontStruct Etsy shop page<\/a> if you have any questions about purchasing, including shipping costs for multiple posters (we can probably put multiple posters in a single tube).<\/p>\n

The poster is an inspirational tribute to the fascination of the FontStruct grid and will make a wonderful addition to any FontStructor’s studio wall. Get them while they’re hot!<\/p>\n
