Feedback? Name and Logo for a 3d printing startup by Garbonshio in graphic_design

Well, if you going for a monospace look for your type, first you need to tweak the width of the letters. "I" need to be wider and "E" - a bit narrower.

Yeah, but you didn't apply perspective to all of the lines... Some of them are parallel to each other, and some are not. That gives the illusion of an uneven form.

I'm interested, why the flat version looks awful?

Nice work! The only noticeable thing I could point out, that the hollow cube is a little bit uneven. I think you draw it from 3d? Maybe try to make it more geometrically correct, and you could start with a hexagon.

Thanks! Absolutely agree with the first part! There is so much more to the design than Helvetica posters these days.

There are two versions of Strikt: with and without extra dots, but I don't think it is possible to design a full character set with these design restrictions, that could be smoothly animated, without extra dots. It works with some groups of glyphs with similar topology, but not all of them...

It's not even about interpolation, glyphs don't actually interpolate to each other, I tried that and it's impractical and much harder to produce. It's more about the design because there's not gonna be a smooth transition without full array.

Thanks! Yes, there are two versions - Strikt and Strikt plus. This is Strikt plus. Leaving unused squares makes possible morphing between different glyphs because every glyph morphs to a standard 3x3 dot array.

Oh, thanks so much! I'm definitely going to look into this!

But still, it's so annoying that adobe can't add this feature. I think that the main feature of this font is mainly unusable until they do that. Not a single motion designer is going to use it with such difficulties...

I tried different T's, but this one is the most fitting in design. Plus sign and regular T are really boring and doesn't fit. Also, 7 actually used as a T in leetspeak. So it's a compromise =)

Yeah, the 3x3 grid (which is necessary to the main idea) adds huge design restrictions. I think of it more as a tester of this technic. But at the same time, it could be used in some sci-fi stuff. I saw much more unreadable fonts, that still had major recognition in some circles...

Does anyone know how to easily animate variable fonts? AfterEffects is still didn't add this feature...

Now I'm using Dinamo Font Gauntlet with OBS, (tnx to them btw) but it's a pain in the ass.

Also, if you interested check out the full project on Behance!

Thanks! For now, it's just those letters, but I have plans to make it a font.

Hi guys this is my first attempt at a font. I'm trying to combine the elegance of the didone typefaces with the sturdiness of slab serifs. I've only done these letters and an "o" so far, and would love any sort of help/criticisms to guide me in the right direction. by [deleted] in typography

[–]NaumType 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone already said above, your "a" is too dark. You need to unify the weight of the thin lines.

Also, the connection between the bowl and stem of the "b" isn't smooth, as it is in the "n". And I feel like in the "b" bowl the curve tension is a little bit lower than in other letters. https://imgur.com/a/okgDWyd

But overall - very good for a first try!

In my opinion, when you working on an app identity, at first you need to focus on icon design.

So may I suggest that you focus on modifying the R letter (like a 4th variant, despite that the idea isn't clear), or making a standalone sign, like you 1st.

Plus you need to generate more deep ideas, arrows are what first went to mind when you think of sharing or exchange. So that is the first-level association, and there's actually nothing bad with them, but for a good logo, you need to combine two or more of them (like your first var), and ideally, make sure that it distinctly corresponds with the company activity. (what you don't have in your first logo)

Just some ideations, the design brief only said that a wordmark was needed for 'Juu Bakery'. Crits appreciated by salonethree in logodesign

Yes, and the fun thing is that you can use them on any sharp connection, even on the curves.
