Sato San, duct tape typographer
Lovely story of a Tokyo security guard who’s enhancing his guidance work through constructions sites with some fantastic custom made signage. He crafts those crisp and distinctive signs with… duct tape and a knife! Having no formal training in graphic design, he managed to create a style so noticeable and appreciated that it is now “highly regarded by designers and curators” and is even known as “Shuetsu Sans.”
The man in question, Shuetsu Sato, also published an instructional book and has fans on Instagram, spotting and sharing his work!
