Inspired by fountain-based architecture, I've created my first fontstruction for the start of my UWE Graphic Design course. For this, I poured water onto different surfaces/objects with varying shapes to capture the cascading effect as reference images. Originally, I was first inspired by watercolour strokes to make a gradient effect, which developed into the idea of water fountains used in contemporary architecture.

Based on the relationship between ink and water, experimenting with the way the two liquids merge and the variation of patterns they create. The font does not follow one distinct pattern, it displays the variation of impressions these two fluids can create. The typeface is a display font, not designed to be used for large bodies of text.

This font inspired from a Duck :D! I made this decorative duck typeface look cute by using a curvy shape. I also add some signatures of a duck wich is beak and wings. This work is not yet done, but i will finish it as fast as i can, so please kindly leave commend if i did something wrong, i hope you can give a good suggestion to support my work. :D

Thanks Fonstructor!

Inspired by the word 'fluid', I looked at marks made by ink and water to create this spacious yet urban looking font. The heavy use of circles combined with illustrative ink splatters and irregular shapes create a spontaneous, fluid and messy typeface.

This font is the showing the fluidity of ink descending in water, having no container but taking gravity into consideration. Shapes are not predictable and form characteristic paths, where the letters are revealed within the negative space. Designed to be confusing to the eye this ‘trippy drippy’ font holds a sense of ambiguity which can be looked at from different perspectives, giving it a range of liquid based designs from juice packaging to water parks.

My theme for this project was "squishy". Having analysed words relating to "Squishy", I looked at sea creatures for my idea with octopuses and jellyfish in mind. This prompted me to create a font which had tentacles. It's a very decorative font that could be used in a variety of places. I feel that the font could easily work in an aquarium exhibit or for fish related products. It could also be used in various other examples such as children's activity books, signage and logos in stores and books looking at fish/aquatic studies in general.

This typeface based on the theme fluid has been inspired by the way that water/ink splashes onto a surface and is also based on Zuzana Licko’s pixelated typography works. After a first attempt was too loose and large in scale a more cohesive type was created using that used the basic shape of existing characters and implemented fluid edges. This decorative typeface could be used for purposes in the sci-fi or horror genre of movies and gaming perhaps

Wave Stroke, inspired by the theme of fluidity, is a decorative font for display use. The original concept was to have basic block sans serif letters that appears to be filling up with water. I then approached a more open design with the wave strokes being more decorative. The multiple strokes that make up the letters are influenced by the idea of flowing water. This is evident in it’s wave-like features which add elegance and a calming effect. I feel that Wave Stroke could be best used on signage for businesses such as the mind and body care industry and on book covers and publications. This is a clone

The new bricks inspired me with their more flowing contour. Ideal for decoration, I saw them as small waves.

My font is based of the theme 'fluid'. I decided to take a more literal way of looking at fluid by taking a look at materials which are fluid and the nature of them. Looking at droplets on a table after it had rained made me realise the nature of the water on the table made the droplets appear edgy and distorted at some sides, so working from that research I created a typeface which replicated this in an exaggerated way by making the droplets curve in quite an angular/curvaceous manner. I found that this also created a futuristic vibe to the text as well. I think this typeface is better to be used on a large scale as when it is used on a smaller scale it is harder to see the detail within the typeface. This is a clone

Aqua - a typeface inspired by the reflections, shadows, highlights and transparency of water. My starting point was the theme of fluidity, and I developed my ideas by making observational drawings of water in containers. At the same time I paid close attention to the letterforms of existing sans serif fonts, and was further informed by similar styles of type used in net art. Aqua's transparency lends a subtle quality, while its 3D appearance helps it to stand off the page.

This is my first attempt at using Fontstruct, my aim was to create a typeface representing the word 'Fluid'. I played around with some ideas by looking at how reflections and water held in a bottle can distort something's appearance, looking at the nature of running water and rain drops run down windows. I noticed how randomly liquids can move in an open space and how there really are no repeated patterns in its movement if you look closely. To get my final outcome I tried writing out the alphabet with nail varnish and glue which gave a really blotchy effect and sometimes gaps in the letter, which I then combined with the nature of rain drops running down windows to get a really wobbly letter form.

This is my display font that I created based around the theme of 'fluid'. I began researching existing fluid related typefaces, then began to sketch my own ideas out, then brought them ideas into fontsruct. I tried to keep it as smooth as possible, so I worked to a small scale, to prevent and pixelation. I believe this would be a very useful font for halloween related design, or even christmas, as it also resembles snow melting. All feedback is appreciated.

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

I started off looking at the word 'curves' and after generally looking at spirals and curved objects I decided to make the letters themselves curve. I cut the letter 'A' out of black cardboard and placed it in a glass of water, and then photographed it at many different angles and positions. I really liked the distorted effect the water had on the letters, and so after changing the theme to 'reflection' I carried on this technique with the rest of the alphabet. 'Pane in my glass' is made up of my favourite shapes that came out of this experimentation.

First of all i was looking at architecture and the curve designs on the collumns of buildings, then moving on with my idea i started by experimenting with ink, looking at how it reacts in water, and filming ink being dropped into water. I then moved onto simply dropping ink into and page to see how it fell, then using the dropplets i created this font.

My first experimentation with Fontstruct. I set myself rules in that all letters must fit to 4x5 squares, and contain 4 circular bricks and 4 elongated bricks. The end result strikes me as a combination of organic and technological forms.
