关于 Arch-able 字体

Arch-able是一款专为数字化制造设计的模板字体。该字体支持Arch-able平台的使用,该平台用于存档和分发建筑师设计的数字数据。字符集包括26个字母、10个数字和26个符号。所有转角均采用圆角处理,使钻头、激光切割机等工具能够顺畅抵达并沿每个转角进行加工。许多模板字体存在直角转角,难以进行雕刻加工。Arch-able突破了这一限制,帮助初学者使用常见工具即可制作出立体字母。

独特属性: ARCH-ABLE is a platform to archive and distribute digital data of architects’ designs. Anyone can download and reproduce architects’ designs as long as they are following the creative commons license.
This typeface is digital fabrication friendly because it has stencil style shapes and all corners are rounded for all drill bits, laser cutter, and other tools.
It makes all users comfortable to reproduce their products easier.
尺寸与包装: 26 letters, 10 numbers, and 26 symbols
标签: Typeface, Typography, DigitalFabrication, GeometricDesign, Simple, Idea,GraphicDesign, Future, Friendly, Japan
生产技术: People had a problem about making 3D typography because it must have stencil style. And some stencil typefaces couldn’t engrave all corners even inside or outside because they have right angle corners.
So ARCH-ABLE typeface solved all issues for making 3D typography because it has stencil style shapes and all corners are rounded especially for all drill bits.
设计挑战: This typeface structure has very strict rules. It was really hard to make all the characters. It should be all rounded, 45 degrees, geometric, 4x6, stencil style, and stylish. So we have to make it conceptual but keep it beautiful typeface as well. It was a very important thing.
研究: One day I had a chat with one of my friend who is an architect in Japan. He told me that Almost times I couldn’t engrave the corners of typefaces because they have right angle corners. That was the starting point.
We started to search so many stencil style typefaces all over the world through internet. Then we figured out we have to make all rounded corners typeface for all digital fabrication creators.
灵感: Nowadays Digital fabrication DIY culture is a boom in Japan. Almost users can use digital fabrication tools but they can’t make original stencil typeface for it. This typeface is digital fabrication friendly and beginner-friendly as well.
项目周期: This project term was from November 2018 to January 2020 in Tokyo, JAPAN.
操作流程: People had a problem about making 3D typography because it must have stencil style. And some stencil typefaces couldn’t engrave all corners even inside or outside because they have right angle corners.
So this typeface is digital fabrication friendly because it has stencil style shapes and all corners are rounded for all drill bits, laser cutter and other tools. It means all drill bit can reach and fit all rounded corners.
It makes all users comfortable to make their products easier.
