The Alunex font family explores materials and letterforms. I started creating 3D letters with various materials, translating them back to a 2D environment using inner shadows. I ended up with four digital fonts: Black, Medium, and two experimental shadow styles. I generated these from the Black style using a custom RoboFont script. To achieve interesting yet recognizable shadow letters, the Black style features small horizontal and vertical counters and deep cuts (A, H, N, M).
