FUSE Schirft.
Type Rearranged

I was making (my now free font) I was in the process of making (my currently free font) Daela when I was approached a second time by FUSE to participate in their upcoming issue on the theme of Codes.

Daela seemed an ideal starting point for what I had in mind (due to its modular build): rearranging the elemental parts of the Latin characters and creating a new system of letters that would then need to be decoded again by the reader. As a result this FUSE font is called Schirft (not Schrift, the German word for typeface).
