Project 06
Experimental Sak Yant Type (2023)
& Creative Direction
An experimental type design project developed using modular elements derived from the traditional Thai sacred tattoo “Yant Hah Taew (ยันต์ห้าแถว).” Often regarded as a form of sacred geometry, the tattoo is believed to offer spiritual protection against bad luck and negative energy.
The project reconstructs symbolic forms and tattoo structures into a contemporary modular typographic system, translating cultural symbolism into graphic language. Through repetition, distortion, and geometric arrangement, the work explores the relationship between tradition, spirituality, and contemporary visual communication.
