We’re serial passion project starters here at Works of Heart, if you can’t already tell. We’ve found that, as social impact designers, it’s our responsibility not only to help organizations do good, but to push what good design can do through studio-led initiatives—to do good ourselves.
One of the important aspects of doing social impact design that I always hear is being immersed in culture and engaged in activities with the community. But when the pandemic struck, we were all kept inside—looking out our windows and looking at our computer screens.
Our typeface, Abangan, is a brash, all-caps semi-serif inspired by our metropolis’ chaotic streets and public spaces—sometimes smooth, sometimes sharp, but always in motion and rarely quiet.
