ZMRDE!

Na plešce ti vidím vešku,

zaklapni svou sprostou držku,

nebo spadneš na koleje.

Zpozdím tebou české dráhy,

spousta lidí se pobleje,

až zvážím tvé smrti váhy.

Na plešce ti vidím vešku,

koukám na ní pěkně zvršku.

Koukám tak i na tebe,

na všechny kolem sebe.

A typeface first inspired by the theme word destruction which lead me to think of climate change and desforestation. After looking at small pieces of bark that had been broken off in the process of tree clearing I focused more on the textures created by the wood.  I contstructed a 3D word from this idea by building plaster casts of bark. The shapes and patterns here created the base for the structure of these letters. I wanted each letter to be made up of small pieces, representing the broken bark; a side product of deforestation. Along with all the smaller patterns inside to show the many different textures that are on the wood. 

This font is based off the theme 'Wicked'. This is just a draft, but it is a complete set so I will leave it up to show my progress. This font uses spooky dead trees to make letter forms. This was not intended to have anything to do with Halloween, but the full set of characters was completed on this fateful 31st. Feedback is welcome!
