Lego Type Study: Blackletter

Lettering is like Clay. Type is like Lego.

Mark Simonson

I must admit that making a complete alphabet out of Lego Elements seemed a daunting challenge when I started with letters ‘t’ and ‘s’ then thought, “How will I make ‘k,’ ‘g,’ and ‘z’ fit?” It is much simpler when you start with a style you are familiar with and enjoy. My actual Black lettering skills aren’t that great, but I love the forms each character makes.
