Jiawei, when you get an error message when posting here, it means its posted. Jus go to Topics and then to Critique and you will see your name as the most recent posting. It works, I promise.
How are you going to use your typeface design? If its going to be anything but display sizes or in print I'm afraid the subtitle details will fill in and be lost. Try to always think of the end use of your designs.
Interesting.
I think the 'visual logic' of the Chinese 'broken square line' style, if I can call it that, requires some treatment of the ends of the strokes. For example, if you look at the bottom of the small side table you posted, they have squarish 'feet' that break the straight line of the leg.
The ends of the strokes here look 'naked' to me, and call for something like the treatment of the feet of the table, to be consistent with the style.
