About the project

Types of Type compares and contrasts English and Korean as an alternative method to convey typographic topics. No knowledge of the Korean language is needed.

Visitors can learn about technical topics like the anatomy of letterforms and categories of typefaces. There's also content around cultural influences like emoticons and expressive type styles.

Approach

Using Korean as abstract letterforms allows readers to focus on the shape of each character rather than the meaning behind them.
