Author's note

Crystalline Outline by Arthur Reinders Folmer is a free decorative outlined font drawn as a web of sharp, fractured facets. Each letter has an uneven silhouette and dense internal linework, giving the alphabet the look of cracked glass or rough-cut crystal.

Its strongest role is in posters, where the lettering can become part of the central illustration rather than a neutral caption. The same crystalline texture suits fantasy game graphics, experimental album covers, and event branding, and it can turn a magazine feature opener into a jagged graphic motif.

--

Crystalline is a typeface based on crystal shapes. Further type and crystal experiments are planned, with a focus on programming 2D and 3D shapes in the near future.

It includes both an outline version and a negative version.
