Astrotheque One is an experimental geometric grid font modelled on a six by six hexagonal staggered-centre arrangement.

---


Set within an a specific set of grid rules, Astrotheque is about exploring the results of those limitations.

Inspired by Wim Crouwel, Bucky Fuller, Blade Runner, John Barnbrook, modular systems, ancient codes, sci -fi, numerology and a love of hexagons. I wanted to create something in dialogue with architecture, yet cryptic, heiroglyphic, retrofuture and / or superfuture. Could be from from a long lost civilisation or an alien library.

Some of the measurement numerlogy incorporated within includes numbers such as 33, 6, 12, 64 for added extra esoteric spice.

I wanted something that could exist abstractly within our environment.

(Available as otf. file and looking to sell in future).
