SIL Open Font License, 1.1Wallpoet is inspired by the often political, short, sometimes provocative, sometimes funny or both, messages found on city walls, sprayed by some anonymous agent. Words, images or both!
The idea behind the font is making a font with a bit of punch, but still easy to use for template graffiti. Print, cut & spray - being the key concept. That's why it has no curves and off course is a stencil font.
With the font, Lars wants to pay respect to the urban guerilla scene, which has inspired him so often with it's total disrespect for the traditional and ingenious ability to break out of the traditional box.
One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.
