UK-based designer of II Vorkurs (2020: a 6-style geometric sans inspired by Bauhaus and Futura), II Balfron (2020), an all caps typeface about which he writes: Inspired by the Ernö Goldfinger's east London tower block of the same name, II Balfron is an imposing, all caps, one-weight typeface. Brutalist in form, the characters embody the principles of the distinctive 27-storey concrete profile with unexpected angles set within a rigid, structural grid. Much like Goldfinger's humanist, utopian housing ideals, the font is best viewed at large scale. |
