When my mother was young (and specially after my birth) she supplemented the family's income from home by typing for students and businesses. When I was a student I used the same machine for my assignments, lesson plans and thesis. The years were not kind to the machine, the mechanics rusted or broke, the letters worn with frayed edges or disintegrating serifs and fine lines. Ruth's typewriter is a declaration of my appreciation of many years of service the brave little machine gave... As you can see I clearly didn't get the letters repaired ;) The font looks like I rearranged and glued down what was left of the raised surfaces, to continue using the typewriter and give my words a very modern look ;)) A "grunge-writer" ?? Did you notice that no typewriters were ever sold with this kind of modern destructured typefaces?! ;)

Since I started this font many years ago (Ruth was very amused and appreciated this hommage) this work has now become a memorial to her

Very very Minimalist font made out of only 8 bricks.

Letters are composed of only 4 bricks

Cursive version of the Duos Font

Enjoy! :)

This is just the 26 caps.

Decorative, ArtDeco-ish all uppercase font for TwentiesComp. Got carried away and added Cyrillic too ;) Enjoy!

Decorative experimental letters drawn around XX pattern.

db RAW Sans is a clone of db Whisper, but there are many changes: Lower cases, special characters and kerning are new. Also many small details (glyph shapes, “outlines”...) have been modified. db RAW Sans is still in development. Please be patient.

Under  construction : )

Based on the theme of rebirth, ‘Fill in the blanks’ draws inspiration from the Renaissance era. Looking at the original printing press, traditional blackletter and Renaissance calligraphy, ‘Fill in the blanks’ offers a modern twist on some of the oldest typefaces to date. By looking at the brush strokes of blackletter and the serifs used in the printing press typefaces, this font is a combination of these characteristics. By using just these features the human eye can still recognise the letter form, essentially allowing your mind to ‘Fill in the blanks.’

For my chosen theme Community (specifically biological community)
I decided to work with a worm/snake shape. Trying to figure out the final letter shapes during the creative process I got inspired by the snake game I'm sure everyone played on their old Nokia including me.
I observed the snake's movements in the game and created a typeface based on that. I would characterize my typeface as a simple combination of retro and modern at the same time.

Created by Nicole Rybáková as a first-year graphic design student at UWE Bristol Uni.

Working under the theme of 'Rebirth', I have focused my first font on the idea of post-war architecture, or otherwise commonly known as modernist/brutalist architecture. Buildings constructed following the Second World War were built using new technologies of construction. These types of designs were known for their use of modern materials such as concrete and steel as well as their interesting geometrical forms. I was heavily influenced by the architecture featured in Owen Hopkins' book 'Lost Futures' which looks at the disappearing architecture of post-war Britain and how changing external contexts played a role in the subsequent destruction of these buildings. 

Emil has a sympatic character, even if he has his little edges and corners. Nevertheless, Emil is not too eccentric.  It' s possible to work with him and maybe Emil will go one step further towards italics...?

Work in progress.

"Knot" font Copyright 2020 Doug Peters of Symbiotic Design, all rights reserved worldwide, including artistic and creative rights.

A typeface inspired by the classic school lettering used for letterman jackets mixed with the paths in a labyrinth from Jim Hansons 1986 movie Labyrinth.

'Knot_Cartoon' font Copyright 2020 Doug Peters of Symbiotic Design, all rights reserved worldwide, including artistic and creative rights. Work In Progress (will require Glyphs or other pro font editor to finish).

This is a typeface inspired by blackletter and the Victorian era. There are repeated elements like bars and dramatic serifs that make it stand out. This is best used for headings or titles. 

A playful stencil-type font that's best used for a headline or small amount of type. I'm not happy with some of the letters like the K and the R and they will need to be tweaked. This is a work in progress.
