Today I learnt that one of the bauhaus school, Herbert Bayer, designed a ‘phonetic’ alphabet for English with special letters for ‘sound groups’ like -ed, -en, -ion, -ng, and -ory. His ‘Basic Alphabet’ prioritised function over aesthetics (surprise, surprise), favouring distinctive letter shapes to visual harmony. The result is kind of fun. #bauhaus #HerbertBayer #BasicAlphabet #AlphabetReform #neography
