I love hand-painted type




Hey Audrey!

I love hand painted type and signs! I think it is a skilled art. And so does Hanif Kureshi, typography fundi and art director at W+K Delhi. He started a project where him and his team digitize the typograpy of Indian hand typographers, in order to preserve and support their art. You can read more about the exact process and specific artists on his website. What an awesome project to create and nurture Hanif!
