SHIBUYA FONT
Design Company
SHIBUYA FONT is not just a design organization but a movement. We harnesses the collective strengths of designers, social welfare organizations to enable businesses seeking new brand expression, to economically and creatively empower people with disabilities by generating and selling open-source digital design data, co-created with local design school students. Sold via a license or subscription fee, collaborators include many global brands. The profits generated are shared with the SWOs who apply the data to their in-house goods.
