well, here is the typeface, Arcosanti Sans: someday there may be an Arcosanti Slab as well, but not anytime soon... to paraphrase the description on the specimen poster, basically the type usually paired with places like Arcosanti is geometric, very clean stuff. Usually Futura. And that does pair well with some of the form of the built environment, but I pictured this typeface as being something that didn't just describe the built environment, but also its interaction with the natural landscape. So almost every letter (cause come on, what can you really do with an uppercase I in a sans-serif?) has some sort of organic form to it, and while I hope that parts of it hint at strong confident forms, I thought it would be more fun to see how a geometric place could be described by modern proportions instead of being so literal about it.
