Dessaus Display
A color font based on pure geometric shapes and basic colors. In 2019, as the Bauhaus celebrated its 100th year, I made a display font to express my gratitude for their inspiration and designed a font from the roots of Bauhaus Dessau.

Characteristic of the font
The main characteristic feature of Dessaus Display is that in its mono structure, all characters are formed in a square. Inspired by Bauhaus, basic geometric shapes; squares, triangles, and circles form these characters. This limitation refers to the saying "Limitation makes the creative mind inventive", as Walter Gropius said. Again in line with the Bauhaus color approach, this color font uses the colors red, yellow, and blue. These colors work together with the dark color used in the background for contrast and support legibility. Uppercase and lowercase letters switch colors among themselves.

I believe that good design results from clear communication and productive collaboration. I prioritize efficiency in my design process, ensuring I understand the problem, empathize, and make well-informed design decisions that align with the project’s objectives.
