Description
"Gestalt Font" - the inscription below is not actually a text in a foreign language, but a legend/key to the geometric font specially created by the author. The grid below is the entire Latin alphabet from A to Z, arranged sequentially. Since the letters are highly stylized and composed only of straight thin lines (minimalist constructivism). The name "Gestalt Font" comes from the psychological term Gestalt (form, wholeness), according to which the human brain tries to perceive individual elements first as a single whole form, before starting to distinguish them from each other.
