Bare Text: The objective of this project was to handcraft a typeface and then ultimately transfer into a digital form. When beginning to design my type face I knew that I didn't want anything too bold or overly decorative. I wanted to keep my typeface very clean and simple, using geometric shapes. I found myself being attracted to similar sensibilities of the Bauhaus School: functional and practical. The further I had gotten into the design process, I continued to deconstruct what was already simple until it started to take on an almost abstract, contemporary feeling. I continued to deconstruct my letter forms until I felt that they were completely stripped down and yet, still beautifully functional. Hence, Bare Text.
