1935 FONTe

TYPOGRAPHY / FONT DESIGN / SOLO PROJECT

A GEOMETRIC ART-DECO FONT

ABOUT THE FONT

THE INSPIRATION FOR THE 1935 FONT CAME TO ME WHEN I WAS STUCK IN TRAFFIC AND SAW A HALF-DEMOLISHED BUILDING WITH AN EYE-CATCHING FONT. 

​

1935 EMERGED FROM ITS ART DECO LETTERING. THE BOWLS OF THE "B" AND "R", AND THE APEX OF THE "A" PROVIDED THE STARTING POINT FOR A HEADLINE TYPEFACE WITH AN ART DECO FEEL. 1935 IS A SANS SERIF GEOMETRIC TYPEFACE. THE LETTERS WERE DESIGNED WITH REGULAR LINE SPACING, BUT IS ADAPTABLE DUE TO VARIABLE FONT SOFTWARE. IT IS BEST USED FOR HEADERS AND TITLES.
