Core Design Concepts

Our approach to type design is guided by the following principles.

Beauty in Imperfection

Imperfection is a positive force. Embracing it fosters natural adaptation to regional variations, creating an inclusive aesthetic.

Open Structure

To provide a shape that allows for quick recognition of characters, eliminate overly dense structures.

Focus on Characteristics

Emphasize key structures to balance simplicity and complexity, keeping clarity and uniqueness.

Reproducibility through Simple Rules

Simple rules streamline the process, making it efficient and eliminating the need for specialized skills.
