GENOME is an experimental typeface investigating how letters behave as living, adaptive systems. Drawing inspiration from human DNA, the project treats typographic forms as entities capable of mutation, variation, and continuous evolution. It explores readability, transformation, and the tension between structure and instability.

 

Just as genomes record mutation and memory, letterforms accumulate change through time. Their shapes echo inheritance, deviation, and adaptation. GENOME positions typography as a biological narrative, a system of forms that continuously rewrite themselves.

 

The Experimental Font Genome project raises questions about how we understand experimental typography. What impact does a font have on an individual, and what impact does the individual have on the font?
