The manifesto declares the challenges and responsibilities of Mandarin-English bilingual designers. One of the challenges is the industry’s disregard for and lack of knowledge of multilingual typography. The manifesto is RISO-printed in teal and bubblegum pink.
Inspired by the manifesto, the newspaper emphasizes the importance of bilingual typography by discussing punctuation fundamentals in English and Simplified Chinese. The publication is set in Noto Sans due to its inclusiveness. From the diverse language options Noto Sans makes available, this newspaper uses Noto Sans and Noto Sans SC. It also includes an article by Monotype: “More than 800 languages in a single typeface: creating Noto for Google”, published in October 2016 at the occasion of the release of Noto Sans on Google Fonts.
