Types Unite

Abstract or Summary of Project

Languages are a means of communication with their own writing systems and character structures. However, when these visual differences are made more obvious with the inconsistent typographic choices between the English and Chinese language in bilingual posters, it obstructs how information is understood and navigated when these languages are placed together.

Anchored on the pillars of education and archival, Types Unite aims to investigate how the English and Chinese writing systems can form a cohesive visual system for designers to be more sensitive while designing bilingual posters for Singapore, a multilingual society.
