Inspired by the artists Sol LeWitt and Vera Molnár, in this experiment, the Latin writing system was replaced by a different graphic system consisting of a combination of lines in a square. The square enables a rapport (a repeating pattern): the endpoints of the lines can meet and thus generate a typeface. In the system chosen by the student, she discovered 36 possible combinations of lines. However, as only 30 were needed for the font system, six possibilities had to be removed from the system.

When text is set in this font, a carpet of lines and shapes is created. Precisely because it is unreadable and unintelligible, only the graphic image is considered. We discover new shapes and characters—constructed typefaces are created. Whether centered, left, or right, large or small point sizes, repeated words, whole sentences, or long texts, new patterns and constructs, or complex shapes can be created playfully, and the surfaces and shapes created by the text invite us to fill them with color. They reveal another interesting aspect of constructed type. In the previously flat, two-dimensional view, the lines and planes open up perspective shapes and create spatial impressions. In a further processing step, the architectural structures can grow into three-dimensional skyscrapers.
