We are a group of XPUB students from the Piet Zwart Institute, and we want to use this project as a fundraiser for the Gaza Strip.
Until 01.12.2025, we invite you to submit one or two symbols that will be used as characters to create a unique dingbat font! After its creation, the font will be available for purchase on our website and 100% of all earnings will be donated as direct help to people in the Gaza Strip.
Send your characters to
hello@glyphs4gaza.org.
The theme of the font is Palestinian culture: food, textiles, patterns, architecture, etc. If you need inspiration, browse through our
are.na board.
Submitted files can be SVG, Adobe Illustrator or PNG. If you know how to vectorize your design, that would be perfect! If not, just send it as a pixel file and we will vectorize it for you.
Submit either two characters for the same letter (lowercase and capital) or just one. We ask that the submission be a solid color (preferably black) and at least 1000x1000 pixels. Try to keep it as simple as possible, since the font should also work in tiny sizes.
It goes without saying that we won’t be accepting any submissions that contain racist, antisemitic, sexist or ableist content!
Have fun, be creative and feel free to
contact us for any questions, or in case you want to help with the project in other ways! ♥️
