fs EthoSlab
===============================================
This font is based on a heavy font I saw somewhere which really caught my eye. I tried to recreate it as best as I could, and it turned out maybe a little better than I had expected.
So far it's just all the basic latin, I will expand it later when I have time.
Inspired by Interfacer. See also Zagato and Zagato Bold.
Looks like the Bauhaus style is trending on FS.
This is a cloneThis typeface is based on the hand-painted names seen on the side of canal boats. The inconsistent, grainy texture of each letter is meant to represent the irregularities in using paint, for example the general wear and tear from the elements like chipped or peeling edges. This was my approach to the idea of “analogue” and a brief set to explore what that means. To me, in the context of the brief, analogue could be defined as possessing a nostalgic or "old school" quality- something replicated in an unauthentic manner in order to create a look-alike imitation of a time gone by. I focused on the old method of transport in Bristol: boats.
A typeface that provides you with a glimpse into brickwork construction.
Monospace lowercase and duospace uppercase (double the width of lowercase), with negative-space diacritics.
Strong tensile and compressive strength (works well stretched, squeezed, and warped in general).
This is my first ever font using ideas to make an heavy sans-serif typeface. I was inspired by elmoyenique and Jamie Place (FontBlast). I'm not stealing ideas from anybody by the way, I've wanted to share something to explain a journey of making my own fonts in life.
I got some aspect of making the glyphs look heavier. I've tried to make the letter f, but it flawlessly has the same height as the other glyphs. If I make number four, than I've obviously make it like this because the slanted bricks are not enough to make up a four glyph. Some of the glyphs (for example: ð, ß, ™, ®) are hard to build it because it was considered to be rounded by its curve and too small if the text was heavier.
When I run out of name ideas, the only idea of this font name i've chose is Lourde (french word for heavy).
Font directly inspired by Cookielord's "Gargantua". That's why I thought of calling it "Pantagruel" (remembering the name of the other gluttonous giant, son of Gargantua, immortalized by the writer F. Rabelais), but it didn't start with z -hehehe :) - and I chose "zampatoo" (wich could mean something like "eat-it-all"). The final result has lost the rotund, forceful and fresh aspect of the original, but has retained some of its overall heaviness and massiveness. During the process it has also gained some curves. Risky font. Good for headlines, bad for body text. Extra "tt" ligature at the "fl" glyph. Hope you like it. Yummy, yummy... :D
A fun, jagged and crazy display font!
The lowercase are alternates to the uppercase, so feel free to shuffle them as much as you like!
UPDATE: I changed the "U" and "V", and i made some numbers and simple punctuation. I also made the lowercase/alternates. All thanks to @frongile and @riccard0
Unicase with alternates (a, e, m, n, u...). You can find also an extra "&" at the ™ glyph and a "c" at the ¢. Inspired on the wonderful Goliath (1970) by Vincent Pacella, but with its own personallity.
