The talk will be the FIRST public presentation of the latest typeface designed by Underware: Scribo. It was designed from 2019 — 2023 and it is Underware’s most complex font designed until today. The typeface consists out of a set of static, variable, and color fonts. It can be used for typesetting as well as writing a piece of text. While designing the font, Underware investigated into chirographical dynamics like speed, velocity, interruptions which were incorporated into the Variable Fonts. To get an impression of the complexity: this resulted in a design space with over 100.000 unique locations. In the talk, Underware will give insight into the process of the design and development of the font, present the outcome of their investigations into chirography and explain why it took them nearly 4 years to finish and release the family.
