font business

SLOVENŠČINA


once, a congregation of mine talked about an event they would or needed to participate in. somebody had an idea to wear a kind of uniform, a t-shirt. we would print the name of their town on this t-shirt. well, we never printed more then model shirts as the technique used did not yield satisfactory results, and somehow our interest died off.

during the development of ideas that came to mind, one comprised letters only. because they happened to be quite rich. in fact, each letter was composed of several of them on top of one another. i decided to use a unique font - courier. all types - currier new, which is light, currier, a more substantial one. and courier bolded. i squeezed and pulled them however i judged it proper. for higher purposes, you do understand, don't you? there are four colours used randomly, one of them being white, the colour of the background, which makes a special effect.


another effect is got by positioning the new font tight. in this manner, the co sometimes the letters of the same colour overlap and please a eye in a special way. it is seen in the case of “or“ in black as shown above.

you can see yet another interestingly composed letter clicking here. you will find it as last in tomaž's name. with what is presented here, i don't think i will impress you as if inventing a revolutionary type, but i certainly find it able to catch your attention.

audacious thought? i'll never know, if you will not tell me. so, it's up to you.

  2. let me ask you. (valid for those who come regularly)

    what kind of dynamics in the way the blog is organized have you noticed?

    i am thinking of rewarding each correct answer with a half a day free helicopter ride over a first catastrophic event anywhere in the world.
