Created by Craig Welsh, Stack is a novelty font style household. This typeface has five styles and was released by JTD.

Stack brings the spirit of industrial chimney lettering from the early twentieth century to the digital age.

The typeface is created to work both horizontally and vertically. Furthermore, the typefaces can work together in myriad chromatic expressions-- offering limitless style possibilities.

The household is true to the spirit of masonry lettering without being a direct lift of any particular lettering design from the industrial age. Like some of its masonry predecessors Stack is constructed as a typeface of 15 courses (horizontal rows) of 'bricks.'

.

Based on a number of years of research study a collection of 150+ photos and approximately 2 dozen archival engineering drawings were generated. The value of the historic recommendations is a type household that is a legitimate reflection of masonry lettering styles of the period.

.

In updating Stack for the digital age, the proportions of the base-unit 'bricks' and the thickness of 'mortar' joints have been optically gotten used to operate in both screen-based and print media.
