OH Calligraphy is a serif typeface that revives and reinterprets the first Latin typeface, Freundschrafts Antiqua, which was designed by a Chinese designer in 1959. It blends traditional Chinese calligraphic features with a contemporary aesthetic and incorporates the fluidity of Chinese calligraphy into a modular system. Its aims are to challenge the stereotypes perpetuated by 'chop suey' fonts in type design and to expand and redefine the visual and cultural boundaries of oriental type in Latin type design.
