Unlike the letters of our standard alphabet, those of Univers Revolved are bilaterally symmetrical and may therefore be read in both left-to-right and right-to-left directions. And because they are three-dimensional, they can be stacked, arranged in circles, or set in motion; they can become toys, pieces of furniture, buildings, or chocolate candies.
To form the letters of Univers Revolved, a simple geometric formula was applied to the capital letters of the widely used Univers font. With the help of a 3-D computer program, each letter was revolved 360° around a vertical axis drawn at its left-most point.
The revolved letters create a new alphabet that recaptures the element of experimentation the Latin alphabet held in its early days. Encountering it for the first time, we re-experience the excitement of learning to form words from letters as children.

Something Impressive! 
Thanks in advance. Alvin.
Great stuff!!! I’m working on a 3D alphabet myself, but the way you have made it and use it here is just great! Love it.

Interesting stuff - but isn’t the M revolved incorrectly? It ought to look more like the W.
