Collection of Research on Chinese Typography

“Chinese typography is not easy to tackle, but we believe that, by more self-initiated and open research, we are able to address our challenges under a global perspective and invite more discussions and breakthroughs to the field.

So here is a three-volume collection of our on-going research and dialogues about typography and design in China, including its history and development, conventions and contemporary practice, and working in transcultural contexts.”

1. Shanghai Type: a slice of modern Chinese type history
2. Transcultural Type Design: a dialogue from China
3. Kǒngquè: restoring the mindset of Chinese typesetting
