The Creation

Apollo is a futuristic typeface I created by exploring various x-heights, weights, and shapes. To complete the project, I designed a space-themed specimen that showcases the full character set, aligning with the font’s cosmic name. After sketching the alphabet, I digitized the designs in Glyphs, defining specific heights for each element. The image below highlights the points used to create the letter S. Lastly, I fine-tuned the letter spacing for a cohesive, flowing typeface.
