Arabic Typeface Design by Shams Hamid
The Y2K aesthetic, also known as Kaybug, emerged as a defining cultural phenomenon from approximately 1995 to 2004, coinciding with the technological optimism leading up to the turn of the millennium. This distinct aesthetic period permeated various aspects of popular culture, including fashion, hardware design, music, and furnishings, with a gleaming aura of tech optimism. The name "ladybug" or Da3sooqa is derived from the Y2K bug, which the movement is named after. The Y2K bug, also called the Year 2000 bug or Millennium Bug, was a coding problem projected to create havoc in computer systems globally at the beginning of 2000. Additionally, the movement was heavily inspired by Japanese anime, kawaii culture, and cute fashion, hence the name "Ladybug." "Bug" refers to the computer bug that originated the movement, while "ladybug" symbolises the cuteness that the movement encompassed. As part of this ongoing exploration, a unique opportunity arises: the creation of an original Y2K-inspired Arabic typeface. With rounded or squared typefaces characterized by quirky counters or round corners, this project aims to capture the essence of the Y2K era's easygoing, fun, and cute aesthetic, infusing it into the Arabic script to offer a fresh and playful interpretation.
