Type Tools are a category of tools, analog, digital or a combination of both, that allow the maker to generate new (typo)graphic forms, such as letterforms and glyphs.

Type Tools

Kasper Quaink is interested in rule-based type design. In this video, he talks about a simple analog type tool he created form himself and how it leads him into further research about letter forms. Kasper is co-organizer of <a href="https://530type.netlify.app" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">530 Type Club</a>, a student-led platform for experimental type design based at Graphic Design Arnhem (ArtEZ, University of there Arts, The Netherlands).
