36 Days of Type 2022

Typography
For this occasion I tried to make a consistent alphabet, but unfortunately I wasn't able to make it to the end, but at least I tried! You can see the result on @ferfolio.otf



Source of inspiration:
This 1906 lettering work by John G Ohnimus was my original inspiration. I love to look at old type specimens and lettering manuals. Johns' work is puzzling to me, so free and avant-garde for his time, that's why I did this contemporary interpretation. 
If you want to see the whole book here is the link (highly recommended).
