Hex font family by Pilaster Davy is a geometric, angular gothic typeface with a futuristic and decorative structure. The free font consists of 4 transformative styles which maintain the striking, modern feel and industrial edge. The influence of hexagonal shapes can clearly be seen in its six-sided letter ends. Their overwhelmingly sharp and pointed appearance gives readers a strong impression instantly.
Hex makes quite the statement as text in games and apps. It is multipurpose and an equally original choice for posters or album covers in fashion, film, sports, or music. The typeface doesn’t feel out of place in quirky editorial pieces either.
The font is part of the freeware license, meaning it is 100% free for all uses private and commercial.
Hex is a type-able three-letter hexagonal monogram font. It allows you to type a Hexagonal Monogram with a border. Two styles are included, Monogram or Ornate, which has serifs and median spurs.
The font requires Discretionary Ligatures to be supported and enabled to work out of the box, so please check the read me PDF for details on how to use it and for useful links to applications that support the Open Type features it relies on to function.
Hex is usable without the Dlig features enabled, but you will have to locate the final glyph in any monogram in the glyphs panel, character viewer, or whatever to add it. You can mix and match Hex Monogram and Hex Ornate in the same monogram, but only manually.
The Read Me PDF also contains a key map showing the locations of the borders and a few special characters, including a Mc Ligature for our Scottish cousins.
Hex was created as a personal project to learn how to use Dlig features and is provided to you 100% free and as-is.

Thanks to the naughty mods and staff of Dafont for getting me up and running. Enjoy!
