It's fun to work with negative spaces for a change. The 'i' is as wide as 'm' & 'w'.

“Bernstein” by chr.s

A simple monospace. Given the main use of this type of font - namely coding - extra characters will of course be added.

“Flag Semaphore Peace” by CMunk

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:10:10 +0000

A simplified and more abstact version version of Flag Semaphore. The peace symbol (@) is the combination of N and D (ie. Neuclear Disarm). # is the number/digit sign to put before letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I and K to make 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 0 respectively. That is already done in the numerals 0-9. * is the attention sign (waving arms up and down together) space is the rest position. / and \ both are the cancel sign.

“Sans Serious I” by afrojet

The ‘Sans Serious’ Series is a group of tribute typefaces meant to honor Dutch designer and typographer Jurriaan Schrofer. Along with Wim Crouwel and Josef Albers, Jurrian Schrofer (1926 - 1990) was among the Bauhaus pioneers of grid-based modular typography and design. Schrofer's work experimented with type, light, and color and focused on mathematical shapes and pattern. From the book ‘Dutch Type’ by Jan Middendorp: “Schrofer made several attempts to create complete typefaces - one of which was wittily called Sans serious - but this was never his goal. ‘Is it necessary’, he wrote, ‘to make complete alphabets with upper- and lowercase, figures, diacritics and seriously adorned with a name, when the aim is merely a formal investigation into basic recipes’ Schrofer's domain was never the design of typographic alphabets, to be used by other designers, but always the creation of letterforms ‘made to measure’ as part of his own designs of - mainly - book covers and postage stamps. He created a rectangular alphabet as the basic element of his ever-changing covers - each based of the same grid but colored differently - for a series of scientific books, ‘Les textes sociologiques’ from Mouton Publishers. He made sophisticated pixel-based letters, all drawn by hand, and experimented with photographic screens as a means of distinguishing simplified letterforms from the background. He created logotypes built from custom-made letterforms, based on rectangular grids.” “In his booklet ‘Letters op maat’ (‘Type made to measure’, 1987), Schrofer presented many of his experimental alphabets from the 1960s and '70s. The booklet was part of a series of goodwill publications edited by Wim Crouwel for Lecturis Printers, Eindhoven.” Read more from ‘Dutch Type’. Image from Letters op matt.

This has probably been done before.

“Mallard Smooth” by gid

Mon, 07 Sep 2009 21:12:32 +0000

Based on the output from the Mullard SAA5050 teletext character generator as used in the venerable BBC Microcomputer's "MODE 7". Smoothed out by hand: not as authentic as Mallard Blocky, but maybe a little more usable

“Monocodigo” by cayo

Mon, 31 Aug 2009 14:58:08 +0000

A monospace techy font. Very similar to Woznian, but not cloned, so the results are different (specially while trying to fit everything in monospace).
