This FontStruction is loosely based on van Doesburg's alphabet of 1919. I have not followed his strict grid of 25 x 25 (unlike Freda Sack and David Quay's revival, Architype Van Doesburg, or P22's De Stijl Regular) -- in other words, some of my caps and numerals deviate from van Doesburg's original design. Also, I've added a lower case and diacritics (which I am currently updating).I.K.%20Bonset%20was%20the%20pseudonym%20that%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FTheo_van_Doesburg%22%3ETheo%20van%20Doesburg%3C%2Fa%3E%20used%20to%20publish%20%20Dada%20poetry%20in%20his%20magazine%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fsdrc.lib.uiowa.edu%2Fdada%2FDe_Stijl%2F%22%3E%3Cem%3EDe%20Stijl%3C%2Fem%3E%3C%2Fa%3E.%0D%0A%0D%0A%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3EThis%20FontStruction%20is%20loosely%20based%20on%20van%20Doesburg%27s%20alphabet%20of%201919.%20I%20have%20not%20followed%20his%20strict%20grid%20of%2025%20x%2025%20%28unlike%20Freda%20Sack%20and%20David%20Quay%27s%20revival%2C%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.foundrytypes.co.uk%2Ffoundry_architype_1%2Fvan_doesburg.html%22%3EArchitype%20Van%20Doesburg%3C%2Fa%3E%2C%20or%20P22%27s%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.p22.com%2Fproducts%2Fdestijl.html%22%3EDe%20Stijl%20Regular%3C%2Fa%3E%29%20--%20in%20other%20words%2C%20some%20of%20my%20caps%20and%20numerals%20deviate%20from%20van%20Doesburg%27s%20original%20design.%20Also%2C%20I%27ve%20added%20a%20lower%20case%20and%20diacritics%20%28which%20I%20am%20currently%20updating%29.

14 Downloads14%20Downloads143 Comments3%20Comments3124 Glyphs124%20Glyphs124This typeface was inspired by the work of two great Bauhaus movers, Theo van Doesburg (1883–1938) and Theo Ballmer (1902–1965) both of whom created an alphabet based on a basic 5x5 grid system. This is the 9x5 version for those of us who don't get to work that early. Here's a sample in action. If you do decide to use Font Theo, we'd be chuffed if you emailed us images of it in use, thanks. %3Cp%3EThis%20typeface%20was%20inspired%20by%20the%20work%20of%20two%20great%20Bauhaus%20movers%2C%20Theo%20van%20Doesburg%20%281883%E2%80%931938%29%20and%20Theo%20Ballmer%20%281902%E2%80%931965%29%20both%20of%20whom%20created%20an%20alphabet%20based%20on%20a%20basic%205x5%20grid%20system.%20This%20is%20the%209x5%20version%20for%20those%20of%20us%20who%20don%27t%20get%20to%20work%20that%20early.%20Here%27s%20a%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.theletterd.com.au%2Ftld-font-theo-2000%2F%22%3Esample%3C%2Fa%3E%20in%20action.%3C%2Fp%3E%0D%0A%0D%0A%3Cp%3EIf%20you%20do%20decide%20to%20use%20Font%20Theo%2C%20we%27d%20be%20chuffed%20if%20you%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ftheletterd.com.au%22%3Eemailed%20us%3C%2Fa%3E%20images%20of%20it%20in%20use%2C%20thanks.%3Cp%2F%3E%0D%0A
