We presented the Nithya Ranjana, in BITS11 Bangkok in Feb 2025.

Various type foundries would like you to know that having a custom typeface improves brand identity. #BITS11

Fiona righting historical wrongs about who gets the credit for collaborative type projects. #BITS11

Jeremy Mickel uses variable fonts as a way to explore design possibilities and decide on the parameters of the final design. #BITS11

Sarang Kulkani's talk on their Ranjana font is blowing my mind. Commissioned by someone who wanted to use Ranjana on their phone(!), it had to handle up to five levels of conjunct at small point sizes. #BITS11

How do you advertise beer when you're not allowed to advertise beer? Great stuff from Patsa Attanon and Tanachot Sapruangnam! #BITS11

Dan, Vaishnavi, Kwanchai and Gumpita discussing the burgeoning type scene in South and South East Asia and especially the growth in demand for fonts with regional script support - and the growing number of designers stepping up to meet that demand. (Hooray!) #BITS11

Neil Summerour and Potch Auacherdkul talking about their collaborative process. Fascinating to see how they can radically reinterpret each others' creative ideas and then end somewhere in the middle. #BITS11

Naphat Sattayut and Thammaset Bunpracha giving an introduction to behavioural design, thinking fast and slow, and behavioural nudges. Good stuff and it made me wonder how this field looks different from a neurodiverse perspective. Sometimes the "slow" decisions get taken instinctively and sometimes the "fast" decisions cause analysis paralysis! #BITS11
