Description of the Typeface by the Submitter

The typeface explores the limits of density, stroke distribution, and optical adjustments in Hanzi Heiti. Furthermore, it undertakes further experimentation on the relationship between character shape and legibility. The shape drawing integrates a handwriting flavour with the traditional Hanzi typeface making method. This font opens up new possibilities for Hanzi typographic design. Additionally, the author is currently working on his 'Ultrabold typeface' design series, and this font serves as the first installment of this series.
