The end result is a highly readable typeface — even at smaller sizes — comprised entirely of straight lines. While the astronomical definition talks about alignment, the word “syzygy” more broadly means “the union of disparate or opposing object, ideas or concepts”. Thus, the name “syzygy” is meant to reference the merger between old-style letters and a modern, computer-driven design tool — truly a meeting of opposites.Syzygy%20was%20an%20attempt%20to%20create%20a%20typeface%20of%20old%20style%20characters%20with%20a%20high%20contrast%20between%20thicks%20%26%20thins%20and%20attractive%20curves%2C%20despite%20the%20inherent%20limitations%20of%20fonstruct%E2%80%99s%20available%20blocks.%20The%20end%20result%20is%20a%20highly%20readable%20typeface%20%E2%80%94%20even%20at%20smaller%20sizes%20%E2%80%94%20comprised%20entirely%20of%20straight%20lines.%20While%20the%20astronomical%20definition%20talks%20about%20alignment%2C%20the%20word%20%E2%80%9Csyzygy%E2%80%9D%20more%20broadly%20means%20%E2%80%9Cthe%20union%20of%20disparate%20or%20opposing%20object%2C%20ideas%20or%20concepts%E2%80%9D.%20Thus%2C%20the%20name%20%E2%80%9Csyzygy%E2%80%9D%20is%20meant%20to%20reference%20the%20merger%20between%20old-style%20letters%20and%20a%20modern%2C%20computer-driven%20design%20tool%20%E2%80%94%20truly%20a%20meeting%20of%20opposites.

Josef Albers' constructivist typographic experiments are a perfect match for Fontstruct. Other Fontstructors have done great work with Alber's ideas. Most notably, Saberrider's fontsract and Stewf's Leaflet family.

Using Josef Albers' Kombinationsschrift alphabet (1928-1931) as my foundation, I've been having a lot of fun remixing and experimenting with his letters. 'Sessions' is the first to get shared.

Inspired by a font used in the Official Playstation Magazine in 2006. 
I have tried to find out its name, but had no success. Does anyone have any ideas?
I wanted to buy it to use on a job, but having no joy, I had to create it myself.
The lower case is completely new.

Since first releasing this font to the public. The name of the Original font that my Upper Case is based on has finally been found, Yippee, it's called Community Service and is $89 (for several weights) from www.youworkforthem.com

one of my main ideas to this was trying to combine classic and modern styles of type in one font... hm.

there's no lower case in construction, but numerals and roman symbols to follow.
feel free to download and use it :)

**********************
Considering the upcoming holiday and the number of new Halloween-looking fonts being posted, here's a new call for a collaboration if anyone's up to it: Halloween Dingbats!I promised myself I wouldn't release a new completed Fontstruction until I finish the project I'm working on. So this is sort of a compromise. Not as fancy as the Bubble Lab, its just for fun. Anything Halloween related is fine, even if it is just coming up with different facial expressions for the Jack-O-Lantern or Skull. Whoever wants to add anything, just clone away and reserve your letter space(s) in the comments below. The only caveat- this fontstruction is created in the 2:2 upscaled brick size. If that turns out to be too challenging, I still plan to add more to this either way... Other dingbat ideas: ghosts, witch, Frankenstein, Dracula, Haunted House, bats, spiders, Halloween Candy, scary Halloween phrases. BOOO!

The idea of this was to create a font without real upper or lower case with a futuristic touch.
In the end i had so many different ideas for one glyph that i decided to include 3 full sets from A-Z into this, topped with some symbols and numerals.

keys for the 3rd set:
A=.
B=,
C="(left)
D="(right)
E=`
F=´
G="
H='
I=?
J=!
K=@
L=_
M=*
N=#
O=$
P=%
Q=&
R=(
S=)
T=+
U=-
V=/
W=:
X=;
Y=<
Z==
*=>
-=]
+=[
[={
]=}

>>>this will be available in 2 more versions:
ANTARES38 and ANTARES39 with rounded and cutted endings.
