12 Downloads12%20Downloads1211 Comments11%20Comments1162 Glyphs62%20Glyphs62The ‘Sans Serious’ Series is a group of tribute typefaces meant to honor Dutch designer and typographer Jurriaan Schrofer.

Along with Wim Crouwel and Josef Albers, Jurrian Schrofer (1926 - 1990) was among the Bauhaus pioneers of grid-based modular typography and design. 

Schrofer's work experimented with type, light, and color and focused on mathematical shapes and pattern.

From the book ‘Dutch Type’ by Jan Middendorp:

“Schrofer made several attempts to create complete typefaces - one of which was wittily called Sans serious - but this was never his goal. ‘Is it necessary’, he wrote, ‘to make complete alphabets with upper- and lowercase, figures, diacritics and seriously adorned with a name, when the aim is merely a formal investigation into basic recipes’ Schrofer's domain was never the design of typographic alphabets, to be used by other designers, but always the creation of letterforms ‘made to measure’ as part of his own designs of - mainly - book covers and postage stamps. He created a rectangular alphabet as the basic element of his ever-changing covers - each based of the same grid but colored differently - for a series of scientific books, ‘Les textes sociologiques’ from Mouton Publishers. He made sophisticated pixel-based letters, all drawn by hand, and experimented with photographic screens as a means of distinguishing simplified letterforms from the background. He created logotypes built from custom-made letterforms, based on rectangular grids.”

“In his booklet ‘Letters op maat’ (‘Type made to measure’, 1987), Schrofer presented many of his experimental alphabets from the 1960s and '70s. The booklet was part of a series of goodwill publications edited by Wim Crouwel for Lecturis Printers, Eindhoven.”

Can be used as well in online chat program, ingame chat, just for design and for other things that I can't imagine.

45 Downloads45%20Downloads4510 Comments10%20Comments1042 Glyphs42%20Glyphs42A tribute to Josef Albers: inadvertently inspired by saberrider and afrojet. 

This font totally happened by accident. Recently, saberrider created steep, which uses a 2.0 x 1.11 filter setting to smoothly blend the quarter-circle bricks into the triangles. After saberrider created his experimental variable scale fontstruction, it lead me to revisit an abandoned work I did from last year that was done in a similar scale. After getting over the initial disgust of looking at the dismal failure, I started tweaking. Then I decided to tweak the letters instead. It became apparent that I could create a stencil type font that also looked like Josef Alber's font. Coincidentally, Saberrider also has a variation with fontstract,
and of course, that Stewf guy has his own family of Leaflets. ;-) Afrojet's sessions came into play in creating some of the letter forms, especially the numerals. The final filter setting became 1.638 x 1.08, which created a nice fusion of the curved and triangular bricks, but was also naturally inclined to necessitate the vertical divide on each glyph. The rest flowed rather easily from there. Here's to more happy accidents. =)

The sample is also a tribute to Alber's color theory, showing the names in identical colors, which, when juxtaposed over contrasting colors tricks the eye into thinking the bottom name is darker than the top.

The following Josef Albers quote can relate to all things creative, like fontstructing, not just color: 

"It should be clear by now that our way of studying color does not start with the past - neither with works of the past nor with its theories.

As we begin principally with the material, color itself, and its action and interaction as registered in our minds, we practice first and mainly a study of ourselves.

Thus, we replace looking backward by looking first at ourselves and our surroundings, and replace retrospection with introspection."

- Josef Albers

8 Downloads8%20Downloads8204 Glyphs204%20Glyphs204Bring back some dot matrix-y goodness to your printed documents with DMP-200 RS!

Based on the output of the Radio Shack DMP-200 printer, DMP-200 RS is a sans-serif fixed-width Dot Matrix Printer typeface from the early 1980s.  The DMP-200 was used with the TRS-80 Color Computer and other fine Tandy computers.

I originally made this an 8×8 font, but upon closer inspection of the finished products under a magnifying lense, it was discovered that the pin-strikes on the horizontal were much, much closer together than the vertical; thus, it was changed to a 16×16 for a better replication.  Plus, that allowed me to place dots '1/2-way' between the 'main' gridlines...

Most non-alphanumeric and More Latin characters have been created to match the original style.

Enjoy, and I look forward to your feedback!Bring%20back%20some%20dot%20matrix-y%20goodness%20to%20your%20printed%20documents%20with%20DMP-200%20RS%21%0D%0A%0D%0ABased%20on%20the%20output%20of%20the%20Radio%20Shack%20DMP-200%20printer%2C%20DMP-200%20RS%20is%20a%20sans-serif%20fixed-width%20Dot%20Matrix%20Printer%20typeface%20from%20the%20early%201980s.%20%20The%20DMP-200%20was%20used%20with%20the%20TRS-80%20Color%20Computer%20and%20other%20fine%20Tandy%20computers.%0D%0A%0D%0AI%20originally%20made%20this%20an%208%C3%978%20font%2C%20but%20upon%20closer%20inspection%20of%20the%20finished%20products%20under%20a%20magnifying%20lense%2C%20it%20was%20discovered%20that%20the%20pin-strikes%20on%20the%20horizontal%20were%20much%2C%20much%20closer%20together%20than%20the%20vertical%3B%20thus%2C%20it%20was%20changed%20to%20a%2016%C3%9716%20for%20a%20better%20replication.%20%20Plus%2C%20that%20allowed%20me%20to%20place%20dots%20%271%2F2-way%27%20between%20the%20%27main%27%20gridlines...%0D%0A%0D%0AMost%20non-alphanumeric%20and%20More%20Latin%20characters%20have%20been%20created%20to%20match%20the%20original%20style.%0D%0A%0D%0AEnjoy%2C%20and%20I%20look%20forward%20to%20your%20feedback%21

136 Downloads136%20Downloads1367 Comments7%20Comments726 Glyphs26%20Glyphs26Just a fun one I did last night while watching tennis and reading the latest DWR catalog (see page 72). This is a pattern Fontstruction based entirely on the Anni Albers textile pattern of the same name.

"Anni Albers began a three decades long collaboration with the internationally recognized design company Knoll in 1951. During the course of this partnership, Knoll released five of Anni's designs: Track, Rail, Lattice, Jhet and Eclat. Originally designed in 1974 as an upholstery pattern, Anni Albers' Eclat, was first produced printed on a cotton/ linen ground in various scales and color combinations. Reintroduction into the market as part of Knoll's 60th anniversary archival collection celebration in June 2007, Eclat, renamed Eclat Weave, is now produced as a woven, rather than printed, upholstery."
