Handy Type

Traditional typography is typically pre-designed by professional type designers. We conceived the idea of creating 'a type that anyone can design from anywhere, at any time.' In this project, a customized system was developed to capture hand-motion data and integrate it into Handy Type. This innovation enhances both the design and user experience, making it more interactive and approachable. It empowers users to co-create letterforms through movement, transforming the act of writing into a dynamic, embodied design process. By bridging physical gesture and digital form, Handy Type reimagines typography as a participatory and expressive medium.
