Before the original sketches, I had imagined and dreamed this font was used for side characters of retro robot animations such as Gundam and Ideon. But the sketches was put in a PENDING folder. It was a few years ago… In the begining of 2011, I restart working with the skaetches to complete as a font file. Detail and some shape were improved retaining the original concept and they were completed and named 'Space Colony'. Just as the name implies, this wide and geometric font family consisting of 6 weights is desiged targeting at use for futuristic product of game, movie, logo and so on. Not only that but the rounded shape makes a lovely, cute and soft impressions so this font is suit for cartoon, animation and character merchandise too. About the designer:
