Typeface development

I have developed a typeface based on a beautiful railing which i have noticed at my local park. I like the unusual counter this letter R has.


It is also inspired by the stone carvings on a number of the old houses leading down to the park. I love the angular letter shapes, all slightly uneven.




So I started with recreating the R and then the full upper case character set:

  1. Hello.
    Just checking, what is the name of your typeface? 'Lindsay' is already 'trademarked'.
