The project includes letterform standardization, information visualization, poster design and an augmented reality experience. The work is presented mainly as a website, with printed posters and three-dimensional models. Scanning a code on a poster shows a three-dimensional model of a character. The aim is to present traditional Chinese script in a new and clear way.
