Withstanding the test of time, they have embodied the history of both the market and of Saigon’s development.The typeface carries an elegant condensed form inspired by the Art Deco style of the early 20th century French colonial era. It features elongated letter heights, combined with geometric lines and forms. The most charming feature is the Vietnamese diacritics which are harmoniously integrated into the letterforms, thus compensating for the typographic challenges of the Vietnamese language system while not compromising legibility.See the full article ReleaseApril 2020DesignerGiang NguyenVersion2.0Supported languagesBasic Latin & VietnameseRequest more glyphsType specimenDownloadDownload typeface The typeface Westgate was designed based on the vernacular concrete typography on the North, East and West gates of Saigon’s iconic Ben Thanh Market, which were installed during its renovation in the middle of 20th century.

The project seeks to investigate the typographic remnants, hidden in the apertures of urban landscape and archived materials, and revive them into digital typefaces.The process of creating the digital incarnations often involves both research-driven and speculative design. Starting from the collection and study of vernacular typographic elements, we select the ones that give us ground to experiment with. We will then extrapolate from a few letters to create a completed working typeface, informed by visual research and cultural context.The output of this project is a curated collection of free and open-source fonts, along with storytelling elements, created by and for Vietnamese people. This is our effort to return the unique but familiar aesthetics of local identity to the community.We hope that you enjoy using and exploring with these typefaces, as much as we did creating them.ContactRepublishEmailInstagramBehalf StudioWebsiteInstagramSIL Open Font LicenseContribute to the projectBuy us some coffee Republish is a self-initiated and exploratory project by Behalf Studio.
