FMP
I created this typeface for my final major project. It explores the boundaries of legibility. The letters have been stripped down to their most basic form where they sit right on the cusp of legibility. Only the essential parts of each letter have been kept, with the unnecessary parts discarded. The brain uses its existing knowledge of letter forms and word shapes to fill in the missing components, therefore creating something familiar to us.
Thai like Typeface - Work in Progress
On my travels last year I saw a typeface I really liked, it was really chunky and appealed to me. The only problem was that the magazine I saw it in was sent in Thai! So when I got home I used the Thai symbols from the page I ripped out in the magazine to try and reconstruct an English alphabet. This is what I came up with.
