The original TYPE poster was designed in 1991 for the Japanese typesetting company Morisawa. The concept behind it was to blend different cultural elements into a cohesive word. Th e Chinese characters "十" and "三" represent the English letters "T" and "E", while the Greek letters "Upsilon" and "Rho" stand for "Y" and "P". All these diverse characters are harmoniously integrated with a Japanese logotype cover of the magazine “Katakana”. This TYPE socks design successfully captures this bold fusion of cultures, which is Henry's favourite choice. Show more
