Itim - Google Fonts

About

Itim is a new Thai + Latin handwriting typeface, with an informal looped + semiserif design. It has 2 stylistic set alternate glyph designs and intelligent OpenType features to recreate the impression of handwriting.

Thanks to Pablo Impallari for the initial OpenType handwriting feature development.

The Itim project is led by Cadson Demak, a type foundry in Thailand. To contribute, see github.com/cadsondemak/itim

Designer

Cadson Demak

Cadson Demak is the first Thai communication design firm to develop type design solutions. Founded in 2002, the studio came together through a shared love of typography and design, a wish to expand and modernize the font industry as a whole, and the desire to make everyday use of type more accessible. They expanded from a modest design firm with dozens of their own typefaces into a boutique type foundry under the name Cadson Demak in 2008.

When you have some text, how can you choose a typeface? Many people—professional designers included—go through an app’s font menu until we find one we like. But the aim of this Google Fonts Knowledge module is to show that there are many considerations that can improve our type choices. By setting some useful constraints to aid our type selection, we can also develop a critical eye for analyzing type along the way.
