Lego Font Creator
This little application was a collaboration between the designers Urs Lehni and Rafael Koch with the developer Jürg Lehni, as a progression from the design of their Lineto Lego fonts. The irresistible logic of the Lego brick prompted them to start thinking about how the fonts could be shown in an interactive type specimen, offering ways to play with it online.

They later developed it into a stand-alone Shockwave application, offering a set of preselected design elements and both Lineto Lego font alphabets to play with. Results can be exported as vector data and opened in vector-oriented graphic design programs like Adobe Illustrator or Macromedia Freehand.

Very cool concept, but the UI tends to disappear when I click on it (FF3/Mac) and I have to switch tabs to get it back.

Todd, same thing here. Love the concept but the UI is jumpy. Wish it wasn't flash.
