310 Ahn Sam-yeol specimen from AG Font

A high-contrast Korean display typeface by Ahn Sam-yeol, winner of the Typeface Design category at the 2013 TDC Annual Awards, designed around the individual aesthetic of Hangul letterforms.

About

Conceived with emphasis on the tension between thin horizontal and bold vertical strokes, each character is considered both as an individual unit and in relation to its neighbours. The single Medium weight covers 2,368 Hangul letters, 244 Latin characters and over 1,100 symbols in OTF format. Its TDC recognition places it among a small number of Korean typefaces to receive international typographic acclaim.

Classification

A display typeface built around extreme contrast between horizontal and vertical strokes, designed for the aesthetic of individual Hangul letterforms rather than extended text setting.
