What It Is

Corinne Ang is an independent designer and type designer with a cross-cultural Filipino-Chinese background, currently active across New York, Hong Kong, and Manila. Her personal website is more than a portfolio showcase; it also serves as a space for experimental type design and cross-media visual exploration.

Core Dimension Analysis

• Tool/service type and core features: She primarily offers type design, custom lettering, brand visual identity, independent publishing, and motion design services. For type design, the site includes a built-in “Type Tester” feature that lets users preview her fonts online, such as Resolve, Monobloc, Pogi, and Trickle. Her typefaces are highly narrative-driven: Pogi, for example, is inspired by cake frosting, while Trickle deconstructs italic forms and rebuilds their rules.
• Resource library scale and collaboration capabilities: The site currently features 4 original typefaces, with Pogi and Trickle still in WIP status, along with more than a dozen design projects spanning branding, packaging, exhibitions, and publishing. Project records, such as leading the RISD graduate exhibition and collaborating with Sundae School, suggest strong teamwork and project management capabilities.
• Licensing and copyright / export and compatibility: As a portfolio site, it does not provide any commercial licensing details, pricing information, or font file export format specifications. The commercialization loop is not yet complete.

Pricing

The website does not publicly list pricing for any fonts or design services. Some core typefaces are still in development and iteration, and there is currently no purchase channel available.

Pros and Cons

Its strengths lie in a distinctive design style that combines personal cross-cultural narratives, such as the Barangay project, with formal experimentation, as well as strong interdisciplinary capabilities. Its weaknesses are a very low level of commercialization, limited font usability, and a lack of licensing or purchasing guidance.

Who It’s For

Best suited for independent brands, cultural organizations, musicians, and typography enthusiasts looking for a distinctive visual language or experimental typefaces.
