Noramoji

When looking for inspiration for my own brand, I came across this project by a group of people passionate about typography in Japan. Much like the ancient view of Wabi-Sabi, these people recognised the character and perfection in imperfect typography found on shop signs. The hand-drawn typography has a unique charm compared to the commercial type found in every city around the world. The people behind this have dedicated their time to developing fonts corresponding to each sign they see, and they give the profits back to the owner of the sign, helping the sign and the original font to survive.
In English, I see hundreds of fonts every day, manipulated, stretched, curled, sharp and bulbous. I never stopped to consider how you could manipulate the complex Japanese alphabets while keeping them legible, but the limits are just as wide as any other alphabet we have on this Earth. Just a shame I can’t read them!

I picked the example above as I love the exaggerated curves of the type, reminiscent of the traditional Japanese brush writing, while having smooth and sharp edges of the digital age.

Visual Research 
The NORAMOJI Project - Japanese street signs 
However, a lettering style, the typeface of logos and signage do not deserve its neglect,  as they cover a considerable amount of urban surfaces. When you exit from an airport and get on a taxi to downtown in a foreign country, it hits you that you are on a foreign land when you start seeing how the signs, storefronts, and advertisements are written that are not familiar to you. You would recognize the iconic Helvetica letters in a New York subway station, or Illuminated Neon Street Signs in Hong Kong. They, too, contribute to shaping the city’s identities as much as the other factors like urban infrastructure and architectural types.
Japan-based NORAMOJI Project knows how much typography matters. They pay attention to fonts that appear in storefronts in old neighborhoods in Japan. They especially have a care for fonts that are handmade, unique,  and even imperfect - that are created by shop owners and non-designers. "They might not be sophisticated, but they have their own charm and uniqueness," Naoki Nishimura, one of the directors, says.
