Dog Eared

 

I designed the typeface Dog Eared as a follow up to Polygon. Each character of the Dog Eared typeface began its life as a folded, Scotch-taped strip of paper that I then scanned and recreated digitally. The typeface was built with robust OpenType features—all numerals and upper- and lowercase letters have at least one alternate version. Dog Eared comes in both a two-component chromatic font (Dog Eared Solid), and as a single color font (Dog Eared Striped). Both are available from MyFonts.
