Ecesis Display (2026)Typeface Design
Inspired by the New York City Highline’s postindustrial landscape, Ecesis explores the space between decay and renewal. Ecesis is a display serif typeface shaped by the juxtaposition of the historic railway lines and the natural ecology that grows through them. Named after the ecological process of establishing a new habitat, it reflects the adaptation of nature reclaiming abandoned spaces.This typeface was created during my participation in the WeType Summer Residency in NYC, 2026, under the mentorship of John Kudos and David Jon Walker. It is an intensive typeface design program/sprint. The typeface was built on Glyphs 3 and in 3 weeks from conceptualisation to final output., and was presented at the Type Director Club in Manhattan.
