While Southern Asia doesn’t often take the centre stage in discussions related to type design, the region possesses diverse and complex writing systems shaped by the interconnected yet unique histories of its nations. At present these distinct circumstances give way to the emergence of vernacular typographic practices that are informed by tradition as much as the future. This publication is a part of the collective effort to bridge connections within the creative ecosystem in Southeast Asian countries, aimed to highlight an array of typographic practices within the region, so that they can transcend their localities and flourish in a broader cultural sphere.
