Fred Aldous Font

After we had the lecture with Bruno Magg, I came back and looked at re evaluating my font. I kind of wish I'd have had this at the beginning of the project. The information that he gave us about creating the letters HOno first and you will have made 75% of all design decisions, could have proved vital. Unfortunately it was too late in the day to re-start my entire font design.


I could though take on board what he said about the importance of the right spacing and kerning.
Nnonoo an even distribution between characters
Nnanoao (spacing, left and right character space)

I also went back and checked my counter's and bowls and some general tidying up according to what he said was of the most importance.
