CSLogic — Type Specimen poster book
This book has been made to explain the reasoning behind the design of the display typeface "CSLogic". 
Each page has been screen printed by hand onto Simili Japon paper.
CSLogic is a geometric typeface built on a 5x5 grid system. It has been designed in four different styles to be used in increments of 72 for use in display setting. CSLogic makes use of typographic weight — the relationship between inked and uninked parts of letters and word forms. Where traditional type designs can only provide a binary contrast of black and white, form and counterform, CSLogic typeface exceed this limitation by emulating a see-through effect to give the illusion of depth within the body of the type. CSLogic is available in 4 different weights — Regular, Medium, Bold & Black. Each has been designed by altering the Fill and Stroke properties of the letter.
CSLogic is best used at large point sizes, each size goes up in value by 72pt. 
Because CSLogic is designed on a grid each cube maps on top of each other precisely, a wide range of visual possibilities are available to designers. Using bitmap, vector or moving image design software, users can overlay selected letters & numbers in precise registration or in easily callibrated positional offsets or transitions.
