Looking back at my typeface, I can definitely say that I am proud of it. I really like how all the lines slant at an even pace on both sides, making it symmetrical and visually pleasing. I am particularly pleased with both the A and the B as I love how they are big block letters, but unfortunately I was unable to achieve this with most of the other letters due to the way they are designed. When looking at my typeface as a whole, I find it pleasing to see how the width of the long line on the G is exactly the same size as the long line of the Z (for example) as this creates a professional house style.
One of the only things I am unhappy with is the letters D and U. I found these letters really hard to create as they are so similar to O and V but obviously I had to change them so you could differentiate between them. With the D I decided to trim the top right corner – very similar to how you would write the letter D. I also trimmed the bottom right corner so it would fully match but I felt like that didn’t look as good/unique as only erasing one corner so thats what I stuck with. With the U, I wanted to do it in a similar style as the V. I trimmed the corners to make it seem more curved but again I felt like this was a bit of an easy way out and it didn’t live up to higher quality of the other letters. If I had more time I would definitely experiment with those two letters a lot more to see if there was a different way I could have approached them – maybe without trimming them at all but instead using a different length of lines and making some parts bolder and bigger than others.
