I went for more of a simple look with a slash through the characters to give it an edgy, modern feel. I also went for sharp but curved characters to give contrast amongst them.

A display font that is a contemporary take on gothic novels and B-grade horror flicks. Perfect for editorials with bite and indie movie and music posters.

"Blimey!" is a typeface inspired by the 1970s Punk movement- paying notice to the political, economical and social issues of the time and how they affected what we commonly refer to as the “Punk Aesthetic”. Ransom note lettering, stencils, silkscreen printing and the appropriation of current cultural imagery aided the movement to deliver its important message of rebellion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Starting off with the theme "Dangerous", my focus for this project drifted to the definitions of both “rebellion” and “anarchy”. This naturally led me to the Punk movement and how it’s graphic style has been adopted into contemporary design practice. These graphics were often rough, raw, weathered and distressed- all of which I’ve tried to incorporate into my own type’s design. Ironically, the fact that this “style” is being used for commercial gain goes against the very foundations of Punk itself. This realisation spurred on the font’s name Blimey!, an ironic expression that is perhaps the furthest away from punk itself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This typeface would be best utilised in consideration to posters, flyers and possibly book covers (providing the content matches the attitude of the font). Thank you very much, all comments are welcome!

I specially made every character to fit it a 'circle', more like an octagon, hence the name. I also made a point to only use nine different bricks, to give it a more rigid feel. It's just Basic Latin for now, but I'm planning to add more characters soon.

What can I say? Just another very simple, edgy typeface...A mix of Bauhaus and 80s-style. Hope you like it. Check out the example.

A(literally)edgy font, that is best used for comics or sci-fi. Based off the Halo 2 title font.

An airy, but edgy assembly using traditional Latin bricks. The patterns within the characters exude a slight hint of Hieroglyphic etchings.
My first attempt. Had some extra time on my hands, so thought it might be fun to give it a try. It is a work in progress, consisting of only upper case letters. More to come.
All feedback welcome.
