bukva:raz!
(in russian: "number one"): AtypI's first international type design
contest,
in collaboration with the UNO: '2001, the year of dialogue between cultures'.
four typefaces from kame are chosen into a selection
of 100 typefaces worldwide, from 14 alphabet cultures.
kame's two japanese designs are the only kanji typefaces represented.
'certificate of excellence as a type designer'
and inclusion in the book in preparation by graphis press.
shirokuro higashi / nichi:
"black and white" east / west.
a japanese and latin typeface pair, already awarded with two prizes at the 1999 morisawa contest.
nichiyou-daiku:
the "sunday carpenter".
inspired by folkloristic taiwanese lettering, this is an hommage to all weekend hobbyists tinkering around the world... ;-)
shuriken boy
needs no further introduction.
kame's most popular typeface keeps finding many great uses.
pesaro:
begun 18 years ago as a freshman,
all experiences come together now,
in an alphabet that desires to be
more perfect than the romans.
happy holidays
to all of you!
and a great new year -
we need it.
