research project

Designs made within the scope of inclusive typedesign and the opposition between European design and Latine vernacular design. The artist works towards creating a design language that dialogues with Latin American aesthetics, whilst exploring ways of combining glyphs to find new solutions for gender inclusive language in Portuguese, a deeply gendered language where "a" endings denote the feminine, and "o" endings denote the masculine.

This project is heavily inspired by the work done by ByeBye Binairy Typefoundry in Belgium.
Some of the typefaces used for these works are by ByeBye Binairy foundry:

✰ Pic Nic by Mariel Nils
✰ Roberte by Eugénie Bidaut
✰ Escabeau by Max Lilllo
