Author's note

The Namafont is a free three-dimensional display font built from tall, angular letters that look cut from rigid sheets and pushed into deep perspective. Deep side planes and clipped corners fracture the upright silhouettes.

Illustrations based on buildings, machinery, or constructed objects can absorb this lettering directly into their shapes, making it useful for game graphics, poster art, packaging, and music merchandise. The repeated folded facets turn a title into something closer to an assembled emblem, especially for industrial, futuristic, or experimental subjects that feature scaffolds, panels, or mechanical housings.

This font was based on a T-shirt print seen on an English-language website several years ago. I was unable to find the typeface and concluded that it did not exist as a font, so I developed it myself as a TTF font.

It still requires a few minor adjustments, and I plan to add special characters at a later date. Because of the font’s particular design, parentheses must be used to start and end a sentence correctly.
