Font design for The 24 Solar Terms

The 24 Solar Terms are the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancients in our country, which is worth spreading to the world.

In order to facilitate cultural exchanges, Bauhaus's modernist ideas were used for reference in the design.In order to facilitate cultural exchanges, Bauhaus's modernist ideas were used for reference in the design. The decorative lines were rationally removed, and the fonts were guided by thick blocks, which made the combination of dots, lines and surfaces more ingenuity.

In the 24 solar terms, spring is the begining of everything.
After the font of "spring" is designed in the manuscript, the remaining eleven solar terms are made from the angle of the stroke.

二十四节气是我国古人智慧的结晶,值得向世界传播这一历法。

为了更便捷的文化交流,在设计中参考了包豪斯的现代主义思想,理性地去除了装饰线,由粗块引导字体,使点线面的结合,更具有考究的空间。

二十四节气中,春是一切的起点。
在手稿中设计好了“春”的字形后,采取“春”中撇、捺的角度,制作了剩余的十一个节气。

节气是为农耕系统服务的,收成时有许多的作物如圆的谷米果实、长的玉米高粱等,在设计中将部分横线形替换成撇或捺或点,不仅有盼望丰收的寓意,更使整套字形更加现代、生动,也更耐看了。
