Typeface ‘Mak Erak’ was inspired by the Kelantanese Wayang Kulit art form. The process of its design was carried out with the aim of creating special fonts with cultural nuances for the visual communication media. The popularity of shadow puppets in South Asia is not just due to its art form but as a communication/ storytelling vehicle as well. Additionally, this is a progressive effort to preserve cultural heritage in other mediums.
