Sori – sound in Korean – is a typeface that combines elements from the Latin and the Korean writing system (Hangul), in particular it takes the letters from the Latin alphabet and the rule of syllable formation from the Korean font system. As a result words are written in ‘block format’ (every syllable fits into an imaginary quadrant) instead of being written from left to right and one after another as we are used to in the English language. Each letter is designed in such a way that it nicely fits into the imaginary syllable block.
My Font exhibit six different Font Styles. They are Regular big, Regular small, Condensed big, Condensed small, Extra condensed big, Extra condensed small. Depending on how many letters in one block (syllable) reside, the different Font Styles will be combined. This Font combine two cultures and generate interest to lear more about new Font Systems.
