Title
Keith Tam: typography + beyond
Description
A Hong Kong expatriate who went to school in the UK and currently a Canadian citizen residing in Vancouver, Keith is a communication designer and craftsman of letters with a multicultural perspective. Growing up in the world-famous (perhaps infamous?) ‘land of million signs’ of Hong Kong, Keith got interested in the visual manifestation of written languages since the age of three. He has been practicing calligraphy, lettering and typography for a number of years, and, not surprisingly, he got into graphic design because of typography, not pictures of things. His musical background (he is a pianist and a baritone), travel experience and his calligraphic practice have strongly inspired his typography and typeface design. He graduated from the Emily Carr Institute of Art & Design in Vancouver with a Bachelor of Design degree in 2001 and recently completed his MA in Typeface Design at the Department of Typography & Graphic Communication at the University of Reading, UK.
