281 Downloads281%20Downloads28110 Comments10%20Comments1069 Glyphs69%20Glyphs69My design incentive: A cube has 9 visible edges when placed isometrically (omitting the invisible 3 edges). These edges should be enough to express strokes of 26+10 alphanumerical characters.  Also to increase the contrast, I used a 3-pixel-wide brush for the strokes and dotted the others.  

Shortcoming: Not very satisfied with the imbalanced weight of each letter. And some of the letters are hard to recognize.

The design is based on this stamp design from 1978 by Gert Dumbar. 

Use font sizes 64, 128 or 256px. Set leading to 24 (for font size 64), 48 (for 128) and 96 (for 256).

39 Downloads39%20Downloads397 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."
