Daniel Uzquiano

I am a graphic designer specialized in typography and interaction. I am holding a Master's in Typography from the University of Barcelona (UB). During the master's degree in 2010, among other things, I developed an interest in the patterns that a letter must have to be recognized as such.In this sense, I incorporated into my work programming to randomly combine strokes and shapes from essential elements of ancient calligraphic models with the aim of exploring the border area between the letter and the doodle. Far from obtaining simple meaningless scribbles, I came to obtain some semantic forms different from those proposed by the calligraphic model that serves as a reference.Since then, I became more interested in creative coding as a means of artistic creation.Some of the fonts I have designed in recent years are Goma Mono, Polar and Dinosaur.
