As someone interested in web design and with a basic knowledge of Hindi, I was fascinated by the Indian Type Foundry, an entry in this year’s Design of the Year awards at the Design Museum in London. The Indian Type Foundry aims to give as much attention to Non-Latin as to Latin fonts. It’s the first company to develop and directly distribute digital fonts in India.
You may have heard of London-based composer and musician Shammi Pithia – his track Pacifist is on our June Podcast and he has been making waves with his new album Audio Descriptive.
I was intrigued by his ambitious and complex sound and in May I had a chance to get to know more about him as we exchanged emails.
