* ABANDONED PROJECT *

This one is being published as a curiosity. I plan to revisit it in a larger scale, so I can pack more detail (maybe even entire towns!) into each glyph. A few people wanted to see this version so here it is.

This font is made to have the features of castles. (Proper balance and support not included!)

Arrow Slits - Also called "murder holes", they allowed defenders to safely repel invaders with arrows or spears.

Batters - Angled sections at the bottom of the walls. Onto these, the defenders would throw stones and other objects so that they would bounce toward invaders.

Crenellations - Cutout segments at the top which provided cover for archers.

Moat - A large ditch which helped to restrict access to the castle.

Portcullis - A mechanically-raised, reinforced gate.

Foundation is a typeface inspired by those found on covers and posters throughout the movie industry such as the popular “Blade Runner.” The goal was to create a typeface that evokes a sense of power or boldness. Through the use of expanded letters and strong diagonals, this font is best used in titles or short messages.

The name Foundation was chosen due to the anatomy of the typeface. It is built in two layers creating the appearance of a structure that has been built onto a base.
