Meitei Mayek Typography: Geometreeyek

Type design is fun. This is the design work for a Meitei Mayek script typeface that I have named Geometreeyek. Over the years whenever I work on the script I learn how to read it a bit more fluently. Nowadays kids learn this abugida at the school level in Manipur but we never got the chance. We grew up with our own language written in Bengali script just because of the arrival of Hinduism and a king’s edict three hundred years ago. Long story short, religion is a royal pain in the ass. Well, Geometreeyek is a slab serif typeface and now is the time to get FontForge!

After a successful loss of a previous font design and its entire source file folder in a CPU crash, a new Meitei Mayek font is on the way. Based on simple geometric lines and a minimal style, Geometreeyek has a clean design with emphasis for use in both print and the web. The name is a portmanteau of geometry and a Meiteilon term eeyek that stands for alphabet letters. [Updated: 3 May 2020]
