Sandro Fetter
Sandro Roberto Fetter (Porto Alegre, Brazil) has a PhD from the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), Brazil, class of 2019. His 553-page thesis, entitled Letra Escolar Brasileira: design de uma famÃlia tipogáfica para o ensino da escrita manual, is perhaps the most extensive scholarly work on school fonts ever written. At that same university, he teaches typography, type design and digital interface design. He also earned a Masters in graphic design from Escola Superior de Desenho Industrial (ESDI/UERJ, 2011). In 2019, as part of his doctoral thesis in the Graduate Program in Design of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, and supervised by Airton Cattani and Edna Cunha Lima, he designed Letra Brasileira, a script typeface to support handwriting lessons based on three main guidelines: simplicity, accessibility, and tradition. It includes a cursive, a simple style, a contemporary style, as well as the traditional Brazilian continuous cursive model. |
