This typeface is based on the theme ‘Disintegrate’.‘Crumble’ is a synonym for disintegrate, so when I experimented with physical forms of demonstrating my chosen theme I made an alphabet out of biscuits. My typeface ‘Crumble’ is bold and made up of Capitals, I think it is more diverse than most as it differs quite a lot between each letter and punctuation symbol, this is because I felt that no one piece of biscuit will disintegrate in the same way and this is what I wanted to portray through my typeface. All comments and feedback are appreciated.

My first project as a student at UWE studying Graphic Design was to create a font using FontStruct. I chose to develop the theme messy, I thought to myself ‘what makes a mess?’ This led me to the idea of toast, it’s messy and especially when burnt. I cut letters out of burnt toast, I really liked the effect it had made therefore it influenced me to develop it further within FontStruct. I decided to use Helvetica as a guide purely for its simple, clean letterforms, hence why I have named my typeface ‘Burnt Helvetica’. I wanted to really capture the essence of the burnt areas with shading, therefore my inspiration came from cutting the burnt toast around a Helvetica letter template, photographing it and printing it on graph paper. Due to the nature of the font being messy I wouldn’t use it on anything formal or of importance, I feel that it would be suitable to be used within children associated designs, definitely food related designs and perhaps something rather playful or of course, messy. This is my first attempt using FontStruct all feedback is welcome.

For my Fontstruction I chose the theme condensed, which was part of our typography brief on our Graphic Design course at UWE. With my theme being condensed, I went with a very skinny typeface, this is because I was going to call it anorexic. On certain letters that have right angles I added an inner curve, to represent how skinny a human body goes when anorexic. The hardest part of this, was the limitations of FS and trying to get around them, this includes letters like M, N, W, R & K. Once I knew how to nudge and stack blocks, the challenge of combining blocks to make the correct letters wasn't as hard. This typeface isn't based on any current typeface.

This font was created with the intent to simulate some liquid ink on a paper, and writing it down with a brush.

The idea of this font is inspired by Riau Island; which is located in Indonesia, especially the uniqueness of its traditional house.

My first typeface design, created as part of my Foundation Diploma at UCA Canterbury. This is an experimental typeface following the general theme of detachment. Abduco was inspired by a one-day modular type workshop which I later adapted into a full set of characters.
If you have any suggestions for improvements please leave a comment!

This san serif is a typeface using geometric, and digital inspiration. The use of the terminals is some of the letters was in an attempt to keep the lines from not being doubled up with a thick width. The end result is a simple san serif.

My very first fonstruction done for my DES110 Typography class. It was a great experiment to think of the placement of letters and how to make a visually attractive font.

I created this typeface when set a typography task on my Graphic Design project at UWE. My chosen theme is 'Energy' I took this further by looking into energy drinks and their existing products' labels at the moment. I was inspired by the effective look of bubbles so based my typeface on this. Every letter's bubbles are different which makes it a unique font. This typeface would be best suited promoting events, products and maybe awareness advertising that are linked with fizziness, water or drinks etc.This is a clone

A set of two capitals created using only one compound of object on a larger bit depth. Each letter sequentially overlaps the other to create a thicker weight. However, in doing so every other letter would not overlap with the other, ie A with C, C with E, so on. So the other set was created by manipulating the first set, allowing any letter form to overlap with each other by switching between either capital or lower case.

A deviation in concept and design from a previous project I had created. Utilizing the same parts and pieces I had used without the strict criteria.

Typeface created with an emphasis on articulating ends with points. In conjunction with this a rhythmic harmony of a line width.

i created this font as part of a graphic design project while studying at uwe. i chose the theme of decay and after research and development decided to go with the idea of radioactive decay. i really like the particle effect. the inspiration for this came from images from electron microscopes i found during my research. the build up of particles that make up solid objects is really interesting to me. i wanted to capture the idea of the many tiny particles so i made my font rather large using many circular tiles to gain detail in my letters.

This is the font I have designed for the first module in my Graphic Design degree at UWE Bristol.
My typeface is based on the word 'Energy'.
The design journey started with me looking into electrical energy, and the result (See: "Fused Font Thin") led me to explore magnetic energy patterns within iron fillings. Next, during the process of creating a magnetic energy typeface I saw similarities with sound waves in my designs, and so also tried to combine the two. The result was "Energy Vibration".
Lots of energy drinks were consumed for inspiration and staying up for hours trying to battle the server. Full character set now complete.

This Fonstruction was created in my first year studying graphic design at UWE. The design brief was to create a typeface using the key word; 'ornate'. I have taken heavy influence from gothic fonts and architecture, looking in particular at religion and religious texts.

I welcome all comments and constructive criticism, thank you :)This is a clone

So here it is...Green Eyed Girl.
This project at UWE Bristol was to create a typefacd based around one word; so I looked into the word 'Curves' (which I probabily will never do again) and eventually came up with this. The idea came from looking at curves in lizards and vines, then linking the curvy-reptile theme with Medusa - hence 'Green Eye'.
Originally I was going to base it on a serif typeface but found that far too difficult on Fontstruct so used aggressive strait lines - similar to pre-historic drawings - to provide contrast against the seductive curves to make it seem like an Evil Temptress. The serif's are there to add authority.
So thats Green Eyed Girl by me...Sophina B.
*I think it may need tweaking in the sense that I've aligned each letter to the edge of the curve rather than the edge against the serif or stem. *
