Book Description
How does one begin creating a Chinese typeface? In Ming Romantic: Collected and Bound, design studio Synoptic Office explores this question through a selection of writings, interviews, and historical material collected during the creation of Ming Romantic, a didone-inspired, Chinese typeface. Precedence and tradition, powerful forces in the Chinese imagination, are addressed in the context of contemporary design practice. Visual form, meaning, and technology are considered in how they might be employed to advance the field of Chinese typography.
