Typefaces

For the digital typeface, I will be beginning with the font 'swiss condensed bold'. I am planning to remove and add rectangles from each of the letters and I will be making it look technological. My plan is to do this on adobe photoshop, but I might check out fonstruct.com as well. I, potentially, will call this typeface 'static'. That is not set in stone.

For the handwritten one, I will be doing it in pencil, on paper. I plan on using a ruler and making it all very linear and I am most likely going to be using a lot of lines with it. Then again, I may make it more of a cursive font; more of a flowing type.

For the structural type, I am going to try out using ink and water, or I may use a hose or two to shape it out. We'll see, I haven't quite decided what one to do yet, and I still may think of a better one and use that.
