Can you Read Me:
Designer? Phil Baines
What is different about the font? It's titled "Can you read me" but its actually almost illegible because most of the characters are halfway horizontally cut off.
How is it constructed? As stated earlier, the bottom half of each character is almost completely gone, except for some choose dips and curves of descenders such as "p"s.
What letters stand out as different/awkward/interesting? "a" and "p" because they have bottom halves, unlike most characters in this typeface
5 words describing the font? unique, abrupt, complex, hooked, curled
Pop:
Designer? Neville Brody
What is different about the font? It's created out of little dots only.
How is it constructed? As stated earlier, its created in a retro, block form of a series of dots.
What letters stand out as different/awkward/interesting? "G" stands out because of its awkward serif that sticks out and "k" because of the wide counter and short right 'ascender leg.'
5 words describing the font? square, noisy, retro, dotted, light
Moonbase Alpha:
Designer? Cornel Windlin
What is different about the font? Each character has a chunk taken out of it.
How is it constructed? Bold, slightly curved blocks are interrupted by small square gaps taken out of corners of each character.
What letters stand out as different/awkward/interesting? "O" because it has a lot of white space and is so abstract that it resembles a flower or plus sign as much as it resembles an "o".
5 words describing the font? gooey, chunky, gapping, thick, round
