COMPONENT
ABOUT
Component is a typeface that explores the dynamic possibilities of modularity through code. With components that can be switched, a simple pixel typeface becomes interesting and unexpected.
The goal of the project was not the to get to a final state but explore the moments in between. Beginning at its “base” state, it is a variable typeface with three axes: one for switching the components(curve, double curve, & straight), one for slanting glyphs, and one for randomizing the position of the components.
BASE
Integer et placerat est, eu imperdiet neque. Proin sit amet purus metus. In nec efficitur justo, sed maximus est. Ut ornare arcu eros, at condimentum enim imperdiet vitae. Morbi lorem augue, commodo vel ipsum ac, sollicitudin placerat urna. Praesent sit amet mauris tortor. Duis ac risus sem. Fusce at elementum justo, ac mollis turpis. Pellentesque accumsan purus ut tristique bibendum. Nam feugiat sit amet enim in vehicula.
SLANT
Integer et placerat est, eu imperdiet neque. Proin sit amet purus metus. In nec efficitur justo, sed maximus est. Ut ornare arcu eros, at condimentum enim imperdiet vitae. Morbi lorem augue, commodo vel ipsum ac, sollicitudin placerat urna. Praesent sit amet mauris tortor. Duis ac risus sem. Fusce at elementum justo, ac mollis turpis. Pellentesque accumsan purus ut tristique bibendum. Nam feugiat sit amet enim in vehicula.
RANDOM
Praesent bibendum a elit non efficitur. Etiam et velit vitae quam aliquet fermentum. Quisque sit amet nulla dictum, cursus erat a, tempus est. Sed laoreet, magna eget mattis tincidunt. Duis ac risus sem. Fusce at elementum justo, ac mollis turpis. Pellentesque accumsan purus ut tristique bibendum. Nam feugiat sit amet. Quisque sit amet nulla dictum, cursus erat a, tempus est. Sed laoreet, magna eget mattis tincidunt. Duis ac risus sem

The typeface is created out of five components. This includes a base square with three transitional components: right triangles with a curve, double curve, and straight edge. An additional component made from a square and a half circle is used when two transitional components are next to one another.
Legibility is unnecessary while dynamism is essential. Type isn’t merely a tool for communication but for expression and experimentation.
