New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
it's far from finished:
the weight between characters is still a little uneven, and some letters i'm not sure about. i was thinking of scrapping the g and starting on a two-story g (along the lines of johnston, akkurat etc.)
i started by wanting to create a grotesque striped down to its simplest form by removing unnecessary terminals.
This is my first attempt at designing a (very rudimentary) typeface.
I've used a simple system where each letter is based on the letter "o" – although I'm aware that such a rigid approach is problematic to say the least. (I've tweaked only a few letters so far.)
All feedback on further alterations I need to consider, etc, would be much appreciated, thanks.
Are there any sites others here might recommend as a place to have ones designs critiqued, in particular, book cover design? Ideally, something of Typophile's caliber is sought.
Appreciatively,
Luca
