🔡 variable fonts workshop v2

variable fonts offer graphic designers new ways to create dynamic, complex, and consistent typographic systems. while digital typefaces traditionally require multiple font files to cover a range of weights and styles, variable fonts instead store glyphs as a range of possible forms with infinite variations. in this four-week workshop, students learn how to utilize and design variable fonts for a wide variety of use cases including typographic identity systems, interpolated animations, and context-aware adjustments like optical sizing. projects involve designing several original variable font designs. course instruction includes glyphs for designing typefaces and basic html/css for animating variable fonts; no background in type design or coding is required.
