Fonts Research

Fonts I like:

NOTE: I used the sentence “Xcorpion Tav0 6” to test the capital and lowercase letters also numbers to analyse the style of each typography. Reference color used was: R:18 G:90 B:97

1) Dento designed by foxh0und

3) SF Chaerilidae Oblique by ShyFoundry.

Review: I really found marvelous the serif fonts due to the aesthetic details no only in letters also in numbers and symbols. The first two instances are geometrical design that combined 45 and 90 degrees cuts with some round shapes. The Dento font was used in the video game Deus Ex: Human Revolution. The last sample called SF Chaerilidae Oblique is a sans serif typography with slight roundness and also oblique lines to break the stereotype of using just vertical and horizontal lines to built a sans serif typography as it can see in letter "a". This font has been used the USA rock band Incubus to create its logotype.


Fonts I dislike:

1) Survivor Series designed by Jayde Garrow

2) Angelique ma douce colombe by Maelle.K | T.B
Free version font for personal use only.

3) But you can get fucked by Elizabeth Marino
Free version font for personal use only.

Review: The main reason to belong to the group of dislike is the lack of clarity to read the viewer ought to guess the sentence. A second reason is because these typographies do not respect the space rule among letters, as you can see in the fonts Survivor Series and But you can get fucked.

The Survivor Series font is a nice try to combine bold and shocking sans serif typography nevertheless the mistake between the letters “i” and “o” in the word “Xcorpion” is critical if you need to print a poster then colors will mix.
The Angelique ma douce colombe font has a cursive italics style however it is no difference between “a” and ”o” letters therefore it creates an interpretation conflict to viewer.
Finally, the last font is But you can get fucked from my point of view the only positive aspect is the originality because the functionality is almost null is just a group of scrawl. This typography does not follow any design rules and to complete, it does not have the total group of letters and numbers.
