[P2]: Final




I really struggled on developing a typeface on fontstruct. I was trying too hard to make everything so perfect and aligned that I ended up hating every font I had created. So I ditched the idea that my type had to look a certain way and started playing around. I created one typeface really fast and sloppily just for fun and I ended up really liking it. I reminded me of the messy, chaotic time period that was the 90's. I decided that would be my theme so I started to pull images and ideas that related to the 90's. I used images of TV static, pixelated skateboards , and Nirvana concert photos.

My font, "Phonte", used to spell out various words that you might see in the real world used for signage or labels. Phonte can be described as static, creepy or pix-elated.

My second font, named Phonte, needs some refining but overall I enjoy the sloppiness of the typeface. It's almost reminding me of a late night teen TV program from the 90's.
