Beyond Bézier – Explorations of drawing methods in type design

In the age of early digital type, several methods were explored to draw letterforms. One of them, the Bézier spline, an algorithm that generates curves with a small quantity of data, has the crucial advantage of sparing computer memory. As a result, drawing with Bézier curves became the industry standard.

Beyond Bézier is a research project that aims to question and reevaluate this standard, to move beyond established trends, and to develop innovative, liberating ideas by exploring alternative methods of drawing letterforms.
