Risman Ginarwan is a type designer who specializes in display and script lettering with a handcrafted approach. While his personal foundry label, Garisman Studio, offers a variety of type design styles, Risman often favors those with a strong vintage aesthetic.
His work through Garisman Studio is eclectic, offering type designs that cater to those in the market for clean, contemporary designs as well as those searching for designs with a distinctive retro flair. Regardless of theme or style, Risman’s work is consistently solid, providing graphic designers with versatile character sets that work well in every application.
One of his most recent releases through Garisman Studio and YouWorkForThem is Jungle Land, a playful brush script letter set written with subtle cursive accents. The inky lines of Jungle Land instantly recall the illustrative style of lettering often found in classic children’s books, updated with a contemporary urban edge.
This carefully handcrafted type design speaks with a warm and friendly tone, conveying every message with an upbeat disposition and a splash of excitement. It’s an adventure-seeking display font that will encourage the viewer to step outside and explore the natural world. Jungle Land is quite at home while on safari, and it’s well suited to any design project that evokes a sense of the outdoors, camping, travel, exotic animals, and the great unknown.
This spirited type design adds a touch of the wilderness to everything from displays and signage to logos, branding and identity, product packaging, merchandise, apparel, website designs, social media images, posters, and marketing materials. Jungle Land is perfect for children’s publications, including magazines and books, as well as other child-centric designs for stickers, postcards, tickets, luggage, backpacks, and travel merchandise. It’s also a great choice for gaming apps designed around a safari, jungle, adventure, or wilderness theme.
Jungle Land offers standard ligatures through OpenType and it extends multilingual support to Basic Latin, Western European, Euro, Central European, and Pan African Latin languages for designs intended for a global audience.
Risman Ginarwan currently offers more than 70 products through YouWorkForThem, including a varied range of script and display fonts to suit design projects of all kinds.
