Free Fonts
I’ve been busy creating fonts over at the superb FontStruct. I’ve designed 6 custom faces not available anywhere else. Some of these fonts were for personal and commercial projects where I needed a font to fit a certain design. Instead of trawling the net and not finding the exact font I needed, I decided to create my own.
Fontstruct allows designers to create custom typefaces using a web based interface. The app is powered by Flash and is well designed and totally stable.
It was a lot of fun and a real challenge to design these faces. Typography is a science and getting the right balance of forms for each face taught me a lot about constructing typefaces. This is a great learning tool as well as a boon for people wanting to make some cool type.
You can preview the entire set over at my FontStruct Page. There’s also a handy User Input feature that lets you see the font as you type.
