Brief 15 - Rounded Version

Following the completion of the slab serif, I moved onto the final variation, the Rounded version. This is very simple to do as I just have to round all the ends and edges of the sans serif.


The way I will be rounding these is shown above. I have decided not to round the sharp points on the joins of letters, shown in the 'H' and 'K'. This is to keep the letters defined as clearly as possible. I applied this to all the letters and numerals.



I found this a very easy task. It took slightly longer than expected due to some of the ends being curved as well, such as the 's' or 'w', however I think the majority of these went well. They might need cleaning up a bit but that will be determined when the larger weights are created and some of the points don't come out quite right, but on the most part I am happy with this variation. I think i works really well.


At this point I have completed all three style variations and I think they are all working really well, and I am excited to do the weights and expand on it all.
