TYPE DESIGNS
To present a different specimen of my typefaces on the website, I coded it with an algorithm that randomises sentences from a Name-List, Adjective-List, Verb-List, Adverb-List, and Place-List. And every time, each value is randomly selected from each array and arranged in the predetermined order: an adjective + a name + and + an adjective + a name + a verb + an adverb + in + a place.
