AG 마노체 2014

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.

자회는 장식 문자 회화, 창의적 글자체 도형 디자인, 더 나아가 한자 예술 표현을 아우르는 통칭이다. 한자는 태생적으로 도형의 형태를 갖고 있는데 글 ‛서’ 자와 그림 ‛화’자가 상당히 비슷하게 생겼다는 점을 봐도 그 연원이 얼마나 깊은지 알 수 있다

이러한 한자의 도형화는 추상적인 서법 예술이든 상대적으로 구체적인 문자 회화든 상관없이 한자 예술과 디자인 발전에 줄곧 영향을 끼쳐왔다.

한자는 그림과 떼려야 떼려야 뗄 수 없는 관계에 있다. 한자는 자연을 관찰하고 귀납, 정리한 결과물을 그림과 부호로 디자인한 데서 시작되었다. 다만 네모반듯한 글자체로 발전해나가면서 그림이라는 최초의 형식에서 점점 벗어났을 뿐이다. 이런 고대 문자와 부호를 통해 먼 옛날 중국인의 생활 모습과 당시의 자연경관을 추측할 수 있다.

충서의 필획은 뱀이 꿈틀꿈틀 기어가는 듯한 형상을 하고 있다. 가운데는 불룩하고 머리와 꼬리는 뾰족하며 다리를 아래로 길게 늘여뜨린 모습이 구불구불한 벌레의 몸체를 닮아서 충서라 부르게 되었다.
