Depicto is a pixelated typeface with asymmetrical serifs intended to depict emojis in coarse mosaic shapes and represented in two styles that perfectly complement each other – Mono (casual font) and Mosaic (color font). From author: As a child, I liked to play with plastic constructors. It was something much simpler than lego, but these colored blocks took up a lot of my time, a lot ) And of course, I liked 8-bit video games. It was not long, somewhere in the 6th-8th grade of school. Not long, but fascinating. As I remember, that was the Dendy Junior console. All those childhood memories were reflected in the Depicto font family. Scripts: Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Georgian, Arabic, Hebrew
Out of respect for 8-bitness, almost all the dimensions are multiples of 8 – a letters elements have a width of 80 points and a length of 80, 160, 240, 400, and so on, as well the spacing between the characters and the vertical metrics. Although inspired by pixelation, the font plays with its own geometry. Using simple squared shapes, it balances between pixel-perfect and diagonal mosaic. The letters construction is based on rectangles – horizontal, vertical, and rotated by 45 degrees. It is important to note that the letters consist of separate non-intersecting elements, each of which, in the Depicto Mosaic font style, is painted in different colors.
The font also uses upper left and lower right horizontal serif strokes. Such asymmetrical serifs are typical for Ukrainian typography since the works of Heorhiy Narbut. Their digitization and pixelization calls for a new look at artistic constants.
