I haven’t been sleeping well lately: I wake up every night around 5 and I don’t know why. Maybe it’s the Bogeyman! Wait… Bogeyman? Excellent name for a new font!
Bogeyman is a handmade display font. It comes in two varieties: regular and eroded, both with their Italics.
Use it for your posters, book covers and packaging, but you’ll have to promise not to scare your kids with it!
This is great typeface to give soft tone to hard sentences. Consider "DON'T PANIC" written with this font and it gives soft vibes and good aura . Hippie, surfing, book covers, album covers, wine bottle labels, will pop up pretty nice with this as well.
I consider this typeface family unique. Negative and positive fonts will overlap finely adding possibilities for easy use of two or more color fonts with your design.
There is no kerning with the AriCube typeface family, since fonts are designed to overlap each other and kerning would ruin that choice.
This Typeface started when I had some use for hippie kind of fonts, but could not find any fitting to my purposes. So I started to make a font of my own, first it was called CurvologyFont but now I feel like it should have my first name and then kind of descriptive info about the design. So Ari + Cube (obviously) + style (if any) +Obl(ique) + neg (or none) fonts comes always as pairs negative and positive for overlapping purposes.
Tombouctou is the French name for Timbuktu, a city in central Mali.
I have been to Timbuktu several times; usually arriving after a three day boat trip up the Niger river. Timbuktu is a smallish city, literally in the middle of nowhere, with a treasure trove of UNESCO listed sights.
Tombouctou font is a handmade brush font. It is nice and elegant and will give your designs an ‘oriental’ touch.
Aktifo is designed with two Flavour which carries a modern and contemporary style, based on elementary geometric shapes and constructed of monolinear lines, it was invented to be functional, leaving behind anything that can be regarded as superfluous.
Aktifo comes in 28 styles: there are two types of families Actifo A and Aktifo B from Light to Black, which both have differences in characters and spaces. Developed with powerful opentype features, equipped with extended language support: Cyrillic, Greek (BETA) and fractions, tabular figures, arrows, ligatures and more.
A ‘Brochette’ in French is a skewer. I used to be a tour guide and some years ago, I guided a couple of tours in Mali. Every night at dinner we had the choice of a ‘Brochette de Capitaine’ (grilled Nile perch on a skewer) or a ‘Brochette de Bœuf’ (grilled beef on a skewer). Of course, every night the Brochette came with French fries and ‘petits pois’ (peas). It was really nice, but after 4 months of eating Brochettes, I longed for something different!
Brochette is a very nice rounded font. It comes with curls, swirls and swashes.
When I am working on a new font, I usually play some music, or have a song in my head. When I was working on this font, an Audioslave song called Getaway Car was playing in my head. Again: naming a font is not that difficult!
Getaway Car was made with a cheap brush and expensive Chinese ink. It is an all caps font, ideally suited for posters, book covers and designs that need a bold, rough & ready look.
