Graphic Designer and Lettering Artist

Santiago Arango is a graphic designer from Medellín, Colombia, who loves letters and everything related to typography. He has more than a decade of experience as a professional designer and eight as a self-taught lettering artist.

Even before he knew how to properly write in his own language, he was fascinated by letters and their shapes, which he now considers the foundation of any visual identity, much like the bricks in a building. The bulk of his work has been centered around designing museum exhibits and cultural projects. His typeface design Oddity also won him bronze at the LAD Awards.
