A commemorative poster for the 'Climate Crisis Font: Korean - Glacier Font' from 1975 to 2050. @nohtype
'Climate Crisis Font: Korean' is a Korean version of 'Climate Crisis Font: Latin,' a typeface project planned and created by Helsinki's largest newspaper, 'Helsingin Sanomat,' aiming to represent melting glaciers as fonts to help people better comprehend the severity of the climate crisis.
'Climate Crisis Font' is an open-type variable font* that utilizes the concept of 'glyph axis' to depict the melting of Arctic glaciers. It is designed based on both the current glacier measurement data provided by the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) and the projected glacier data up to 2050 provided by the IPCC."
