Multilingual Font Family Design for Digital Screen

In this session, Jinhee Kim and Suhyun Lee will talk about the purpose and process of producing “Sae Gothic,” Sandoll’s own typeface. The “Sae Gothic” is designed to cover multilingual scripts (Latin and CJK) and is designed to be used easily on screen. This session is composed of two sections. First, Jinhee and Suhyun will talk in detail about how they reflect on the typeface that they have found in the workshops with UI/UX designers. Especially, the focus will be on the text line alignment, number and symbol forms, space between letters, and leadings. Second, they will talk in detail about which points were considered and which trials and errors were experienced when creating multilingual characters within a single family. The focus will be especially on the baseline, size, width, character-specific structure, and unified impression. 

This enlightening presentation is sponsored by ATypI Paris 2023 Diamond Sponsor Sandoll.
