Font Phase 12 // QR-L

Draft for majuscule L FN QUORUM

Proportions at Versal-L are not ultimately defined, although there are obvious indications – humanistic and grotesque proportion system. Certainly the letter L belonfs to the same group as »E« and »F«. Due to its stem and the slightly angled finial.

Font Phase 11 // QR-K

Draft for majuscule K FN QUORUM

Very likely the letters X, Y abd K are not going to form a coherent group of letters, which means there will be no similarly angled diagonale for those three glyphs. An open simple connection with an obtuse angle in the center, combined with angled and exaggerated finials is most suitable for an human grotesque Versal-K.

Font Phase 10 // QR-J

Draft for majuscule J FN QUORUM

There are two opportunities for how to design the capital letter J. In defiance of conventions, the hook has moved below baseline. Apart from personal preferences, kerning – narrower adjustment possible – benefits from that.

Font Phase 9 // QR-I

Draft for majuscule I FN QUORUM

The letter I is a trivial construction – an exact straight line and the Versal-I is completed. Although a few experiments may be done. Maybe adding a horizontal line as emphasis to bottom and top won’t hurt the legibility. An angled finial could fit into the picture – currently that remains to be seen.

Font Phase 8 // QR-H

Draft for majuscule H FN QUORUM

There can go nothing wrong with the letter H – or can it? A pair of stems and a crossbar semems pretty easy. Adjusting proportions in combination with the other letters is more of a challenge.
