BFA Thesis

My thesis explores how type design can challenge linguistic inequities and support cultural preservation, focusing on inclusive practices by women, Indigenous, Black, and LGBTQ+ designers. Alongside critical analysis of Unicode, digital infrastructure, and design history, the book also includes creative coding experiments with non-Latin scripts, where typography generates through user interaction.
