ABOUT

Yanghee Ryu

Korean graduate of the type design program at the University of Reading, class of 2017. His graduation typeface there was Willow, a type family for multi-lingual typesetting in Latin, Korean, and Greek. It is inspired by Korean traditional woodblock printing. It combines the elegance and organic shape of the brush with the sharpness of wood carving.

In 2021, he published these typefaces at Google Fonts: Gowun Batang (text serif), Gowun Dodum (humanist sans), and developed Dongle (a rounded squarish Hangul font) on his Github site. Gowun Batang and Gowun Dodum were designed in 2010 and 2016, but the full set of 11,172 Hangeul syllables was not completed until 2021 in the Google Fonts/Github release.
