Mano was initially introduced in 1993. Various experiments of three-set modular typefaces were attempted after Ahnsangsoo font, and Mano was one of them. It is a typeface composed of stroke modules.
Mano 2014 is an upgraded version of Mano (1993), which was designed by Ahn Sang-soo. First upgrade was preceded in 2007; three weights were derived. Second upgrade was preceded in 2014; five weights were derived. Hangeul, Roman Alphabets, numerals and symbols were visually adjusted. The font was recomposed into a multi-set de-squared type.
Stroke module
Module of Mano is a stroke with fixed length and weight.
Repeated strokes and circles create all consonants and vowels of Hangeul in proportional regularity.
