Time to play

'Time to Play' is Underware’s exploration of the dynamic relationship between typography, language, and human interaction. With their trademark experimental approach, Underware challenges readers to rethink the role of type beyond conventional boundaries. At the heart of the book is the typeface Kermit - originally developed for children and widely accessible as part of Microsoft Office - making it one of the first writable fonts available to a mass audience. Despite its playful appearance, Time to Play delves into provocative ideas about the present and future of typography. The publication brings together essays, visual experiments, and type specimens, printed in four PMS colours on three different papers. Far from being just fun and games, Time to Play is a serious invitation to reimagine what typography can be.
