Tactile Textus is an experimental project exploring the intersection of typography and textile craft. The word "text" originated from the Latin textus, meaning "weaving" or "fabric". It highlights the tactile nature of letterforms through handmade methods, using scripts like Greek, Cyrillic, and Hebrew. The project also reflects on the historical marginalization of textile arts, often dismissed as "feminine" or decorative. Tactile Textus blurs boundaries between graphic design, art, and craft, redefining typography as a multisensory, cultural, and material practice.
