As I was going through my class mates sites I came across this little type gem. From the designer,
“After a wonder around the permanent collection of the Tate Modern, we had to select one work as inspiration to base a new typeface on. At least six characters had to be produced in order to show our methodologies of how the letter forms would be created. I choose an oil on canvas entitled ‘K VII 1922′ by László Moholy-Nagy. I was attracted to the use of geometric shapes and bold lines and saw potential in forming a solid blocky typeface. From the chosen work I made up a universal template to base my characters on. It is very similar to how digital clock numbers are formed”
