THEME: PROTECT

A display font inspired by one of the UK's first and most influential free-party sound systems- Spiral Tribe. They helped create a culture of freedom and expression through art and music which was heavily (and still continues to be) suppressed by the Police. They used tribal patterns frequently in their artwork, which is the reasoning behind the spiral shapes within the letters. 

The weights are varied throughout the letters to make it more playful and psycholdelic, as the rave culture is against agression and force used frequently against them by the police. New age travellers embrace harmony- which is why the letters are sized so that they work together in words to create a wider pattern.

An experiment with stencil fonts.

Why you can read this? Этот шрифт исследует как орнаментальную состовляющую шрифта, так и рукописную, составляющую из отдельных штрихов целую букву. Эти структуры могут лечь в основу других, более сложных или простых шрифтов.

STF_MIZOLLEN - Futuristic maze style typeface.

It was designed as part of the renewed visual identity for one of my music labels.

A spirally design which tries its best to be lineal. Check out the "M" to see the "ammonyte". :D

Well, for some time I've wanted to make a font entirely with spirals. This is not that font, but it's as close as I've gotten to actually carrying out the idea. This is also small enough to use for body text, which is likely more than will be able to be said about an actual 100% spiral font.

Original size: 15.75pt (use multiples of this size for pixel perfection)

Dungeon Map: For All Your Dungeoneering Needs!

This is a typeface based on 2d videogame dungeon maps, like the ones seen in early Legend of Zelda games and in The Binding of Issac.

Also partly inspired by Blackthornprod's random dungeon generator tutorials.

A formally-dressed Zigourat. :D

A design that looks like a top-down view of ziggurats!

I composited the diacritics so they'd fit into place, but this means that most anything non-English needs to be pretty large to be unambiguously read...

A doodle made with Brick Basket.

This has many uses! It works as a pixel font or a high-res one, and can generate a surprising range of visual effects.

This is my 3rd font here in FS and still improving some... My 1st and 2nd was inspired by "nal"...

Finally! Ancient Maze is available now its really hard and fun making this type of font.

A single line is bent on itself to trace letterforms in 5x5.

This is part of my "IVO" series (Inline Versus Outline) wherein inline and outline elements are split, merged, and altered to make them ambiguous and to allow new styles to emerge. They may look like maze fonts, but they have a different design methodology altogether.

A quadratic design which also kind of looks like a hedge maze viewed from overhead.

The idea here was that I had 4 quadrants with 90-degree angles in them, and I would turn or modify those quadrants so they looked like letterforms.

Original size: 5.25px (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Official MultiWorld² Kurrac's Cryphtography Font

Another mazed typeface.

Enjoy!

A chimera (fusion) which combines inline-versus-outline, maze, Gemscript, and other techniques to produce a timeless look.

*

Original size: 6.75pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Design Rules:

1. Square bricks only.

2. A 1px soft border of negative space must exist between lines whenever possible.

3. Glyphs must fill the 9x9 grid to the greatest extent possible given the rounded style.

4. The set of glyphs shall be a heterogeneous mix of symmetrical and asymmetrical forms.

5. Negative space will replace positive in any situation wherein the small grid size or the geometry of a letterform would be detrimental to the chosen style. This includes all situations where any shape lacks at least a soft 1px border of negative space around it.

An attempt to produce a low-resolution pixel font which generates mazes from arbitrary strings of text. It requires the use of negative line spacing (available only to certain software) to look right without hand-editing.

The mazes it produces aren't the best, but they are definitely interesting! I might just call this a cipher and be done with it...

A multi-line design which is slightly reminescent of mazes/fingerprints. It's not designed to create functional mazes, but it is somewhat capable!

"Absinthelyric Print" is an anagram for "Labyrinthine Script".

*

Original size: 11.25pt. Use multiples of this value for pixel perfection. (If you use antialiasing, it will look perfect at most any size.)

*

Design rules:

1. Square bricks and 90-degree angles only.

2. Alphabetic glyphs must have open terminals; numerals and symbols must have closed terminals. Letters which do not terminate (D,O, etc.) must be broken so that they terminate.

3. Glyphs must fill the 15x15 grid.

4. Ligatures and combinatorial glyphs must fit into one letter's space.

5. Draw from the outside in.

Suggestions welcome!

And another mazed piece!

Another Maze design!

Line 'm up!

Another tribute to the great Dutch graphical designer/pioneer "Jurriaan Schrofer".

This time I didn't do a straight foreward recap of a specific work from the great man, but rather had myself inspired by a number of his sketches and combined those ideas all into this type! (Nonetheless ofcourse still heavily inspired by..)

Here are a few of the original works I drawn inspiration from:

"A.S.C. COMMUNICATIONS, SEMINOTICS, SIGNAGE SYSTEM PTT 1975 (Dutch Post Office) , BEURS VAN BERLAGE, UNREADABLE ALPHABET"

A square blocked pixel-like type.

Enjoy!

Actually .. there are no Italics

A monospaced type of Ticcal Thin. Better thought out.
