So this is what you get when boredom and I go on a little date (I don't mean that too literally, I'm still quite young for that). I plopped down on the couch with my Periodic Table of Minecraft shirt and began placing some random pixels. Eventually, I got a pattern going. The last character (secretly the §) shows what I call the core matrix. Before you say anything about my obsession over matrixes and that I've been dating the wrong thing (again, not literal, just humor) let me stop you there. I kinda just have a thing for giving everything cool names. Any comments or suggestions on two things that are the same (and are supposed to be the same) and things to improve are accepted <3

I looked into the definition of introverted as a word, which simply breaks down as ‘to turn into one’s self’ so leading off of this I went about recording and observing objects that I felt had this characteristic in common. The most successful and clearest representation of this I felt was blinds, as they turn into themselves and also act as deliberate screen mechanism. This then became the foundation of my type design, mimicking the lines of the blinds within my typeface. I also wanted to play with the idea of reducing the letterform as much as possible without losing legibility,
as I felt that this helped to further portray introverts because it is as if the letters are becoming hidden with the background.

My first attempt at Fontstruct for my project at The University of the West of England.
This font is based on the theme word that I chose, Ornate. I decided to look at weeds and went with the idea that they grow where they are not wanted. I chose to use a normal base letter in the background of the font and place weeds on top; where they are not wanted.
The name, 'Hidden Beauty' spurs from the fact that we automatically hate weeds however if you really look at them you would see that they can actually be quite beautiful.This is a clone
