BianZhiDai is a font inspired by shading characters in ASCII art and 编织袋 (woven plastic bag in Simple Chinese). Previously constructed in GDC (glyphdrawingclub, designed and developed by @hlotvonen and @i-tu ), turned into modular when doing the revision.
BianZhiDai is good with colors, especially in combination with different fill/stroke colors. Try it, and play it. Besides, the whole font is modular based, so you can customize it in Glyphs any way you like.
There is an update version of bianzhidai, go have a look: bianzhidai 2.0
