This blocky and industrial font was inspired by architechtural features on a large multistory car park near where I live. I took pictures of multiple elements from the building and rearranged and rotated the shapes to create letter forms, and used shading to create a 3 dimensional effect to mimic the structures depth when seen in person.
The theme for this typeface is the word 'Filthy'. The letterform's structures are based on dust and the way it separates when a finger is dragged through it. Dust collects on objects that have been untouched for periods of time, often through neglect. The use of negative space and lack of border draws attention to the dot-work dust that forms around the accents of the letters. As a finger cleans dust, larger piles form where there is a change in direction. This helps identify the individual characters whilst keeping a minimalistic approach. This font can be used for headings and posters, or shop designs and logos. I have always felt this font would go well on a burger shack to help give a rustic or edgy look.
I was inspired by the recent influx of minimal-grid fonts. I wanted to see if I, too, could manage to get a readable font with very few blocks and a small grid. This is a 3x3 font. I've used full square, indent square and quarter circle bricks. Maybe I can add a few more punctuation marks and symbol glyphs, but I found this size very restrictive. I have not looked through the fonts created since FS started, I suspect that what I have built here has already been done and apologise to any earlier creator but I honestly didn't copy nor clone your work.
While creating this font, I had 2 tasks:
1. The font must be a minimum size
2. The font should be visually understandable
In the end, I came to the conclusion that 3x3 pixels is what I need.
Unlike some other fonts, I have a true size of 3x3, not a pseudo, sacrificing the classical appearance of some letters and numbers.
In some programs ("Notepad" for example) there is no possibility to adjust the line spacing, so you will have to skip the line so that it does not merge with the previous one...
I hope you will enjoy ;)
DOTTITI EXTRA LIGHT REVERSE : Having - like many designers - looked out for decent 3x3 typefaces, I decided to try my own as each existing version had some flaws or didn't completely follow the rules. The slight difference here is that circles are used, giving more readability to some characters. I completely restricted the design to the 3x3 grid meaning some characters are pretty abstract, BUT they follow the rule! #dottiti #zissdesign
