Chaweng
Chaweng is a coastal region on Ko Samui, an island in the Gulf of Thailand, about 20 miles off the mainland. The design of Chaweng is based on some ‘Latinese’ characters Peter Rosenfeld detected while celebrating Chinese New Years Eve with people from Thailand and China on the beach of Chaweng. Ralph M. Unger took on the idea and developed a completely new typeface, very beautiful, very ‘Latinese’. Chaweng obviously shows some of the typical characteristics of Chinese ideograms, still keeping a high level of legibility. To add something really special, Unger digitized the Chinese signs of the zodiac which change annually, on the occasion of the Chinese New Years Eve.
Chaweng is perfect for signs and small texts, e.g. for any Asian restaurant and shops, menues, displays etc.
