D, G, V & 4 are the only two letters that still retain a sharp edge.

Originally based on a Black Square of Russian Artist of Kazimir Malevich. Only using the smallest amount of manipulation possible to give a real minimalist effect. Whilst still retaining some form of legibility.

Identified as "No. 1229" in their Lettres Fantaises of 1896, it sports a very fine side shadow, which I've attempted to re-create here. (I found the "No. 1229" sample on Hoefler & Frere-Jones' blog - fifth image from the top.)

This FontStruction is split in two to make downloading possible. The Basic Set (this half) features all of the Basic Latin and More Latin characters, while the Extended Set has all of the Extended Latin A and several Extended Latin B characters (Latin-based diacritics for the Central European, West European, Baltic, and Romanian languages, plus special characters for Croatian, Slovenian, and Livonian, among others).I%27ve%20added%20a%20side%20shadow%20to%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2F80235%22%3EPrometheus%3C%2Fa%3E.%20The%20inspiration%20was%20a%20typeface%20from%20the%20French%20type%20foundry%20Peignot.%20Identified%20as%20%22No.%201229%22%20in%20their%20%3Cem%3ELettres%20Fantaises%3C%2Fem%3E%20of%201896%2C%20it%20sports%20a%20very%20fine%20side%20shadow%2C%20which%20I%27ve%20attempted%20to%20re-create%20here.%20%28I%20found%20the%20%22No.%201229%22%20sample%20on%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.typography.com%2Fask%2FshowBlog.php%3FblogID%3D34%22%3EHoefler%20%26%20Frere-Jones%27%20blog%3C%2Fa%3E%20-%20fifth%20image%20from%20the%20top.%29%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3E%0D%0A%0D%0AThis%20FontStruction%20is%20split%20in%20two%20to%20make%20downloading%20possible.%20The%20Basic%20Set%20%28this%20half%29%20features%20all%20of%20the%20Basic%20Latin%20and%20More%20Latin%20characters%2C%20while%20the%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2F104169%22%3EExtended%20Set%3C%2Fa%3E%20has%20all%20of%20the%20Extended%20Latin%20A%20and%20several%20Extended%20Latin%20B%20characters%20%28Latin-based%20diacritics%20for%20the%20Central%20European%2C%20West%20European%2C%20Baltic%2C%20and%20Romanian%20languages%2C%20plus%20special%20characters%20for%20Croatian%2C%20Slovenian%2C%20and%20Livonian%2C%20among%20others%29.

35 Downloads35%20Downloads357 Comments7%20Comments742 Glyphs42%20Glyphs42Mr. Crouwel strikes again...in spirit.   It took a while to build this one. The issue was not getting the letters done—they are rather simplistic after all—it was more to do with getting the preview windows to display the letters correctly. I tried lots of different filter settings. The slim break lines only previewed properly at 1.5 scaled bricks or below but they were too thick at that point. 1.8 brick scaling gave the desired result but left the preview a mess. Catch-22 is such a nightmare for perfectionists. In the end, I chose the correctness of glyphs over preview. Hence, the imperative letter A. However, I did take liberties with certain glyphs (j/1/4/7), added certain other glyphs (./,/!/?), and poked pinholes in the numerals to distinguish 5 from s, 2 from z.Find the corresponding uppercase here.Mr.%20Crouwel%20strikes%20again...in%20spirit.%3Cbr%3E%26nbsp%3B%26nbsp%3B%26nbsp%3BIt%20took%20a%20while%20to%20build%20this%20one.%20The%20issue%20was%20not%20getting%20the%20letters%20done%26mdash%3Bthey%20are%20rather%20simplistic%20after%20all%26mdash%3Bit%20was%20more%20to%20do%20with%20getting%20the%20preview%20windows%20to%20display%20the%20letters%20correctly.%20I%20tried%20lots%20of%20different%20filter%20settings.%20The%20slim%20break%20lines%20only%20previewed%20properly%20at%201.5%20scaled%20bricks%20or%20below%20but%20they%20were%20too%20thick%20at%20that%20point.%201.8%20brick%20scaling%20gave%20the%20desired%20result%20but%20left%20the%20preview%20a%20mess.%20%3Ci%3ECatch-22%20is%20such%20a%20nightmare%20for%20perfectionists.%3C%2Fi%3E%20In%20the%20end%2C%20I%20chose%20the%20correctness%20of%20glyphs%20over%20preview.%20Hence%2C%20the%20imperative%20letter%20A.%20However%2C%20I%20did%20take%20liberties%20with%20certain%20glyphs%20%28j%2F1%2F4%2F7%29%2C%20added%20certain%20other%20glyphs%20%28.%2F%2C%2F%21%2F%3F%29%2C%20and%20poked%20pinholes%20in%20the%20numerals%20to%20distinguish%205%20from%20s%2C%202%20from%20z.%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3EFind%20the%20corresponding%20uppercase%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2F120316%22%3Ehere%3C%2Fa%3E.

this was like a "flash"!
i started another new font, just NOT to forget the idea i had, which i use to do always, when i got lack of free time.
usually i create 3-5 glyphs to remind myself of the style, etc...
but this here took about, let's say 15 min of working time. it just flowed as if some"thing" leads my right hand :)

...more glyphs to come, when i got less other work to do. if i think about the fun this was, it won't take long.

A little interweb research gave some hints at a few more glyphs than the initial six glyphs in the  'Slurpee' logo. In some cases, like with the 'c' glyph, I noticed that it had been drawn differently in different usage. See here and here.

Being that the current Slurpee logo is Unicase, I decided to try and make uppercase and lowercase alternatives that can be mixed and matched for the unicase feel.

See also Chank Diesel's wonderful font Cosmic, which draws from the old school Slurpee branding.
