Robin, when you updated the post, it got reflagged as spam. I suggest you only add to this in comments now, to prevent it from getting unpublished again by the system.

Sorry, don’t know why this is happening to your posts.

I’d say somewhat vernacular ;-)
Your S doesn’t work. I think you could go geometric all the way with a solution along these lines:

By the way, I’m sorry to burst your bubble, but, while pleasant in its own rough way (and as of lately, fashionable even), your typeface can hardly be called “unique“, even ”a bit” ;-)

Thanks for the honest words! However my bubble will burst only when someone shows me a typeface with the same qualities done better.

I really like the S and it looks nice with the other Straight midlines.

But in a way it is an anti typyface since it has 0 skill, 0 secrets, no mysterious elegancy, no voice. And that is exactly what i like about it. But even I seldom need it. Idealistic neutrality.

But although I know most real typographers would regard it as stupid, I don't understand exactly why, other than the fact that it requires very little skill to make.

But you said this style is even in fashion, any links?

What is the point of leaving out "optical stuff"? Do realize it will only look MORE geomatric if you include overshoots, slight contrast, etc?

Design words, not shapes!

Well, to my eyes, when you use incredibly high sizes the true shapes look better to me than the ones with the optical tricks.

Some of it is actually working as a grunge face. It's similar to some "vernacular" fonts that play up their own ignorance and lack of refinement. Fonts like Chinese Rocks and HVD Poster, are based on rough, impromptu lettering. While Cosed is much more rigid and smooth, I would still put them in the same category.

What I would suggest is to maybe make it a little more awkward. Keep _S_R_O_5_K_ etc. the way they are and try to capture that weirdness in some other characters.

Thanks Tristan, I appreciate your understanding. Do you have any particular letter in mind that I could change? For me it is close to perfect according to the principles I set out, but I think I am blind for it.

I actually have done lower case letters as well, but they are actually unusable since I tried to use the same thickness, creazy me...

Do you have any particular letter in mind that I could change?

I was originally going to suggest you alter the _K_ so that the arm and leg met exactly at the stem, but then I thought that would make it really thin and maybe a bit too weird.

You could make the horizontal lines in _E_ and _F_ the same length. And if you're not opposed to breaking your rules a little, you could make the leg and arm of _K_ slightly narrower at the ends to mimic the optical effect on the _R_

That's all I can think of right now.

Thanks, Tristan, I used to have E and F with all the lines the same length but it was problematic. Thanks, I will take your thought´s into consideration!
