Sahn is the diploma project of @v.ratchanon_

Sahn is a solemn yet flavorful typeface designed to expand the possibilities within the Thai loop typeface family. In this project, both Thai and Latin scripts were developed simultaneously. Features from one script can influence and be integrated into the other, creating a cohesive visual language. While the Thai script may appear very different from Latin, both scripts share a similar repertoire of shapes; although they are disconnected, they seek moments of connection. Sahn aims to foster a dialogue between the two scripts by highlighting their commonalities in terms of tone and texture, while honouring their unique cultural differences.

💫UPDATE Canon Grotesque V0.2!! - now includes Medium, Bold, and Black! I improved shape consistency, made minor design optimisations across all weights, and fixed some drawing issues :)

The next plan for me would be working on the Canon GrotesqueThai V0.2 to match the Latin version and a possibility to complete all weights from Thin to Black, with better language coverage and more special characters for the following updates.

Sahn began with a desire to explore how Thai and Latin scripts might speak in closer dialogue—not by reducing one to fit the expectations of the other, but by allowing each to inform the other’s development. Designing both scripts at the same time meant constantly shifting attention, not only between letterforms, but also between meanings and context. What does emphasis look like in Thai, a script without a typographic italic tradition? What does it mean to adapt the rhythm of one script to match the tone of another?

Rather than treating Latin and Thai as separate problems to solve, Sahn worked through the overlaps and mismatches and then created an exchange between them. Some elements translated smoothly; others resisted. The loops in Thai, for instance, offered a specific color that could influence Latin script, not in a decorative way, but as a way of rethinking how texture works across scripts. The diagonal stress and modularity of Latin italics opened up a way to think about movement and emphasis in Thai, even if their visual outcomes remain distinct.

Much of this process involved visiting historical references, everyday typographic habits, and how scripts behave when used together in real contexts. That meant not aiming for symmetry or perfect alignment, but for a shared tone of voice. Some decisions were intuitive, while some were deliberate. Many required revisiting decisions I hadn’t realized I was making along the way.

Sahn doesn’t claim to offer a model for designing multi-scripts, but it does ask what might happen if we take the idea of translation seriously, not just as a linguistic operation, but as a design method. It’s an ongoing process, the project has raised more questions than it answered. But perhaps that’s where the work begins.

Sahn is a solemn yet flavorful typeface designed to expand the possibilities within the Thai loop typeface family. In this project, both Thai and Latin scripts were developed simultaneously. Features from one script can influence and be integrated into the other, creating a cohesive visual language.

Instead of concentrating on a specific style, Sahn explores the features that can be applied to display Thai-Latin type families. Drawing inspiration from historical references like the Pong Family (ตัวโป้ง) and adapting these elements for Latin scripts creates a space for exchange between the two.

While the Thai script may appear very different from Latin, both scripts share a similar repertoire of shapes; although they are disconnected, they seek moments of connection. Sahn aims to foster a dialogue between the two scripts by highlighting their common traits, tone, and texture while honouring their unique cultural differences.

Instead of concentrating on a specific style, Sahn explores the features that can be applied to display Thai-Latin type families. Drawing inspiration from historical references like the Pong Family (ตัวโป้ง) and adapting these elements for Latin scripts creates a space for exchange between the two.

While the Thai script may appear very different from Latin, both scripts share a similar repertoire of shapes; although they are disconnected, they seek moments of connection. Sahn aims to foster a dialogue between the two scripts by highlighting their common traits, tone, and texture while honouring their unique cultural differences.

Sahn is a solemn yet flavorful typeface designed to expand the possibilities within the Thai loop typeface family. In this project, both Thai and Latin scripts were developed simultaneously. Features from one script can influence and be integrated into the other, creating a cohesive visual language.

I am happy to announce that Canon Grotesque v0.1 and Canon Grotesque Thai v0.1 is now available @futurefonts ✨

Canon Grotesque and Canon Grotesque Thai are a playful type family distinguished by its round-sided sans-serif design with slightly closed terminals reminiscent of the grotesques from the early 20th century.

Its compressed form and tight spacing make Canon Grotesque ideal for use in posters, billboards, headers, and logos. The type family also includes wide alternates for round-shaped characters, introducing a dynamic change in tempo within compositions and creating a fresh reading experience.

Please give Canon Grotesque family a visit 🔗 futurefonts.xyz or link in my bio💫

#tb to a typeface I created during the Déplacement project mentored by Alice Savoie in the second semester at @ecalmatd

Viscera tries to ask one question: What if the concept of ‘Life’ were to be put in a typeface? How would it look? This question arises from studying an artist who challenges traditional definitions of ‘sculpture.’ The project tries to capture vitality and rawness in a typeface while examining the duality of space—if a typeface changes in form, does it still remain a typeface? The typeface has three additional alternates that can be interchanged with its original form.

—

One of the most important lessons I learned from this project is how to observe the ‘white space’ or negative space around a letter. Before this project, I never really understand what that really meant. Another challenge was balancing the weight across all the variations to ensure that the texture looked consistent. It was a great learning experience✨

I drew this lettering as part of the @ecalmatd semester project with Marie Lusa in the Autumn of 2023.

How can the detritus of the present and the traces of destruction–the “ruins of the Anthropocene”–be handled? What potentials are released when man and nature meet and ally?

I based the idea on the text „On An Impending Eternal Turmoil In Human Thought” written by Reza Negarestani. Potential Worlds that might arise from the debris left by humankind. Ideas of humans and nature, about planets and their inhabitants, and about the relationships between them are always being renegotiated and constructed. The final result was a chunky, rounded mashup of an italic and an upright style.

1). Digital drawing of the lettering.
2). Final letting.
3). Initial sketches of an idea.
4). First draft of the lettering with sharper details.

Saunter is a semester project that I designed last semester during a course at @ecalmatd

It is a variable font with optical sizes and weight axis that aims to fit all applications from text to headline. Saunter is a versatile, ubiquitous, and universal typeface that fits in any type of content.

Specimen presenting String Calligraphy™

Writing tools have always determined the shape of letters. We explored strings dipped into paint as a tool to find new calligraphic shapes. By placing, pulling and lifting the string, we were able to modulate the contrast, resulting in bow-tie-like upstrokes and fish-tail-like endings.

During the digitizing process, we maintained these unique features, while developing a simpler, more unified system. The tool we used is now binding the specimen, inviting the readers to try the technique themselves.

Project developed with @vvvvee___ and @luxpio in the Tools Make Shapes class by @kaibernau at @ecalmatd 🌿

Specimen presenting String Calligraphy™

Writing tools have always determined the shape of letters. We explored strings dipped into paint as a tool to find new calligraphic shapes. By placing, pulling and lifting the string, we were able to modulate the contrast, resulting in bow-tie-like upstrokes and fish-tail-like endings.

During the digitizing process, we maintained these unique features, while developing a simpler, more unified system. The tool we used is now binding the specimen, inviting the readers to try the technique themselves.
