“Perfd” by domald

Inspired by perforation patterns; seemed only natural to kern it to within an inch (should be pica en?!) of it's life! alternate z and ampersand under $ and _ respectively). Best viewed with sample text.

“Rebuild (Metal)” by JoeAllison

A complete rehab of my previous typeface "convention". Each glyph has been slightly tamed from its wilder form, to aid the legibility of its display. Whilst maintining an architectural influence. This form features a halftone pattern. I have also designed a black and white form. Hope you like it!

“dense molecular complex 5” by funk_king

the molecular complex family uses a similar geometric pattern at various sizes. the dense versions could be considered bold and/or inverse of the regular versions. there are two distinct looks with the regular and bold, but each size/grid variation also creates its own individuality by using common dna :)

“Scanografia” by cayo

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 07:17:09 +0000

This my recreation of my own handwriting fontstructed with a vertical line/stripe pattern (I know it's bad calligraphy, but don't tell Claude Dieterich I did it, please). I used a fountain pen 1.1mm stroke to get my samples written down in order to have a basis. My UC leans slightly to the left and my lc to the right; must be the graffiti influence from way back in the day. No wonder I only type nowadays... 13.09.09 alternative s added. located instead of the long s → Unicode:017f (Alt + 0383) 14.09.09 More Latin Diacritics added.

“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.

“abstract letter patterns” by CMunk

Symmetric patterns difying legibility. Each l/c letter consists of two different bricks in a square copied diagonally. The u/c are the same as the lower case but copied into four (making a fifth in the middle).

“Block02” by mguerrero

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 01:19:04 +0000

Block02 is the new experimental fontface by BlueTypo inspired in patterns and dotted typography, performs well in large sizes. The principal function is decorative but if you want to use it en large text, maybe nobody can read it. ; ) Download, test and share it.

“Fluoralei” by geneus1

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 19:25:22 +0000

Inspired by caseycastille's Chinese Chairs, this started out as an exploration of optional letters for that font. Then I just doodled some repeating patterns. Then I saw how I can fill the patterns inside the letters. They fit together pretty easily for vertical letters, but diagonals were really tricky. The end product resembled Hawaiian leis draped over each glyph. Very floral. So there you have it. Flowers. For Casey. :)

“Fluoralyte” by geneus1

Just like Fluoralei, but with a lighter pattern that extends thru each horizontonal bar.
