Light A is my first attemp to create a light font with fontstruct. She's look pretty in small size. All comments are welcome. Zen

“Mac Lab TT 010” by mskocko

Clone of Mac Lab TT 005 UltExtExtra3xBld to be used for a filter-driven font family. See TT 011, 012, etc. If you clone it, please do not name your version "Mac Lab..." as I will be playing with and using "Mac Lab" fonts here at FontStruct and in my classroom. Thanks!

“Baroque Ecstasy” by BaroqueEcstasy

Initially, I envisioned this font as an elegant serifed font, based on my handwriting (which is not to say it is itself elegant in any way). It has some Art-Nouveau influences, featuring contrasting bowl sizes, and sharp diagonal lines juxtaposed against flowing curves. When I began working on it in FontStruct however, I wasn't able to render its sinuous lines as I had first imagined. It evolved, becoming squared and angular, taking on a more Gothic feel; although, this suits its name. The title comes from "Ribbons of Baroque Ecstasy" is the name of a collection of works by English architect Neil Spiller, who advocates a return towards Gothicism, and away from bland Modernism and schizophrenic Post-Modernism.

“Escheresk” by shasta

I intended to make some sort of an M.C.Escher tribute here. I'm sorry this isn't very complete and far from being perfectly well done, but it somewhat started to make me feel dizzy...;) And even though I'm not very convinced by this, I don't think I'd come up with a way better execution soon.I hope for Mr Escher that there are better tribute fonts for him out there! He'd definitely deserve it...It was by the way funk_king's Impossible Alphabet that reminded me of this unfinished thing laying around in my messy unpublished fontstructions box, and made me take it out and finish it. (If you can call 42 characters "finished".) Also check out Frodo7's Hommage à Escher, geneus1's IsoMatrix 3D, and funk_king's Soma for some other great Escher-esque fontcrafting!

“FS Mini” by cayo

I though about this concept while designing the superscript numbers of FS Remix. It is basically the same grid filter with one brick narrower and one shorter.

“Hunstruct” by afrojet

Hunstrüct is my first attempt at designing a contemporary blackletter typeface within Fontstruct. The typeface draws inspiration from the long tradition of German Fraktur styled blackletters. The name Hunstrück is taken from a mountain range in Germany called the Hunsrück. Primarily I was aiming to build a face that would work well as a display type for gig posters and larger headlines but as I reworked the typeface I tried to strike a balance between text and display. Big thanks goes to djnippa for his hard work in spacing this font properly.

“IsoMatrix 3D” by geneus1

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 07:15:52 +0000

Mostly inspired by the video game QBert, which was, I'm sure, partly inspired by M. C. Escher. IsoMatrix was a font long before Fontstruct, and was much harder to realize with bricks than vectors. This one is shared thanks to the intricate 3D output of the following fontstructors: shasta's Escheresk, frodo's Hommage a Escher, and funk king's Soma. It is also released for Em42, because it was created purely with the original set of bricks that Fontstruct started out with.

Dear Human, here is our latest confection: a delicious version of Chocobot Milk. Don't believe the rumors that Chocobot Labs uses human ingredients in its products. Inspected by Chocobot CBM-91.

“soma” by funk_king

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 23:57:13 +0000

well another escher inspired set. however with this one i was also influenced by the soma cube - which is very escheresk itself. actually i don't know if i'm more happy about this set which is much more simple and clean than my previous efforts or that i finally googled upon the soma cube which i had as a kid and wasted many hours playing with...much like now with fs :) thanks to frodo7 with Homage a Escher and shasta with Escheresk for providing great examples of clarity and inventiveness of design in this genre.

Clone of Disparador with filled closed counters. Looks pretty stylish if used properly...
