Family Tree
Terminal Grotesque is a font that I started in December 2010 while working for a game project, on a pixel font called Modulicon. The characters of Modulicon are not alpha-numeric but a series of icons designed to be displayed in small sizes. After some time spent completing this font, working with pixels made me want to start another drawing that could be used for titles within higher sizes. This side project, was given the temporary name of Junkette and then became Terminal Grotesque: a pixel font inspired by Paul Renner's Futura and some features of Radim Peško's grotesque drawings.
The first versions of Terminal Grotesque were designed using the online app Fontstruct. Later, the project migrated to the open source software Fontforge.

Jérémy forked Raphaël first weight and applied a custom filter to it to create a new outline version. He then corrected all the shapes by hand, obviously.
