“Syzygy” by aaronbell

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 09:20:51 +0000

Syzygy was an attempt to create a typeface of old style characters with a high contrast between thicks & thins and attractive curves, despite the inherent limitations of fonstruct’s available blocks. 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.

“More Latin Trajedy Titling Capitals” by will.i.ૐ

More pxl love. And another expansion of Lex Kominek’s Trajedy majuscules. The freshness of the original charmed me into creating an extended set of matching miniscules, diacritics, symbols and ligatures. But why stop there? :^)

“NCD Autonium Small Caps (PayPal $5 to djnippa” by djnippa

If you want the FULL SET including the European Set then send $5 via PayPal to djnippa@hotmail.com, stating which font you require. Roughly based on my NCD Black Square fontstruct, but massively scaled up to accommodate the internal lines. I found that the small caps version works nicely when used in odd combinations with the lower case. Particularly the upper 'R'. Most difficult characters were the F/f. I wasn't too keen on the open space they made, so I've added more than a few alternatives. The 'r', 'J' & 'L' gave me a similar visual dilemma. I have also completed a version with Normal Caps. Which will be displayed soon. ALTERNATIVES ============ # = d (stem facing other way) ^ = e (extended arm) < = F (rounded top edges) * = f (over lapping next character) \ = f (alternative with extended tale) ] = g (old style) % = g (old style with ear) [ = g (extended foot) ‡ = I (alternative) } = J (alternative) > = M (Monospaced) { = r (shortened arm) ` = S (alternative) § = W (alternative) ~ = y (extended foot) If you're name's Thalamic, Afrojet, Intaglio, jMarquez, Minimum, Kix, Geneus1, MagicSam, Shasta, beate, Funk_King, Em42, Empar, or anyone else's work I've may have downloaded, then please email me, and I'll send you the final version .... if you want a copy that is. :-)

“Reed Sans Mono” by aphoria

Adapted from Reed Sans. Certain characters had to be significantly modified: M, W, m, w, @, and &. The numbers were converted from old style to lining. Several other characters received a touch-up here and there.

“More Latin Trajedy” by will.i.ૐ

Lex Kominek made a jewel of a screen font, fontstructing Trajan capitals in pixel form and somehow making one of modern time’s most overused typefaces ever fresh again. Well, at least I thought so. Why not follow up, then, with my first pixel font ever? I spliced in lower case, old-style figures, tweaked a couple caps and symbols from Lex’s original and made some headway on the extended character set. Hey, good times for laid-up, concussed kinda guy. @:P Of course, pxl me!
