About Let Parents Stay Police de caractères
Let Parents Stay est une police de caractères inspirée de la broderie traditionnelle Han, créée pour venir en aide à un village frappé par la pauvreté. Le village de Jinling compte plus de deux mille enfants laissés derrière par des parents partis travailler ailleurs, et de nombreux habitants maîtrisent l'art de la broderie Han. Les produits brodés locaux se vendaient mal, car les motifs n'avaient presque pas évolué depuis cent ans. Les éléments classiques de la broderie ont été abstraits et recomposés en formes de lettres contemporaines, que les brodeuses du village réalisent à la main. L'objectif est de générer des revenus et de transmettre ce savoir-faire à travers un langage visuel moderne.

Also, the traditional Han Embroidery patterns have undergone little to no innovation over the past hundred years, so they can’t meet standards of the modern aesthetic, resulting in low consumer recognition.
