Jan Koehler
| |
Bergen, Norway-based designer of the Latin and Cyrillic connect-the-dots typeface Alchelys (2019). It was inspired by Malachim. [Google] [More] ⦿ | |
Malachim was an alphabet published by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa in the 16th century. The Malachim alphabet is derived from the Hebrew and Greek alphabets. It is still used by high degree Freemasons to some extent. Other alphabets with a similar origin are Celestial Alphabet and Transitus Fluvii. [Google] [More] ⦿ | |

The Briar (was: Alphabets Magical, or: Fuzzypeg's Homepage)
| Alphabets Magical had freeware rune and old writing system fonts by Ben Whitmore from Auckland, New Zealand. They included AngelicR100, BarddasWRR100, DaggersR100, IEFutharkR100, Malachim, PVEnochian100, PWRunesR100, ThebanBW100, AlphGeniiFzpg100, Enochian-Regular, PictSwirlR100. He also had Enochian-Regular by the Digital Type Foundry, 1991. In 2014, we rediscovered Ben Whitmore as The Briar. He published Coelacanth, a free typeface family inspired by Bruce Rogers' legendary Venetian typeface, Centaur, described by some as the most beautiful typeface ever designed. He writes: There are surprisingly few digital revivals of Centaur, and none that I know of providing the smaller optical sizes that were available in the original metal type. Centaur was tremendously versatile, as elegant and readable in the smallest caption text as it was at display sizes. He created the italics from scratch. Interestingly, Coelacanth has six weights from Thin to Heavy, and six optical styles, 4pt, 6pt, 8pt, 14pt, 24pt and 60pt. CTAN link for downloading Coelacanth. |
