Solarium is a display typeface inspired by celestial bodies and the relationship between light and shadow. I was initially drawn to sundials as a source of inspiration, and as a result, created a radial grid that I laid over my letterforms, removing a piece of the letterform based on greatest legibility. I then added round flourishes in order to reference the form of the sun and moon, as well as a star shape where the letterform is removed to increase legibility. Solarium comes in four variations with varying levels of flourishes in order to allow letterforms to better sit next to one another, as well as give designers more freedom over use of the typeface.
